Stock Duplicating


Recommended Posts

I don't think you can be picky about finding a stock duplicator shop. Years ago I needed a side lock type Butt stock for a Dumolin DBL and the only guy I could find taking orders was Mike Kokolus in PA. We talked for some time on the duplicating process. He talked about how folks that do duplicating either give you over cut wood or terribly under cut simply due to the fact that its expensive to rebuild loose tracer arm joints. So they just don't. Back then, some 10 or more years back, he charged $160 for the butt stock with my wood. He did outstanding work and saved me a whole lot of hours to cut one out of a blank, God Bless him.... he passed away some years ago but he passed his business to these folks....  http://www.gunstockduplicating.com/about.html   Back then Mike was always back logged 3-6 months so I think you will always have work if you invest in good equipment. Actualy, I may be a customer if you get set up!  Here's the stock Mike made up for me back then. The original was completely broken in 2. Good Luck on your endeavor!

That is beautiful work. It seems the more and more I get into this work the need is there for stocks.

Maybe a new line of work for you since there seems to be a call for it.

I've seen this guys work and it's exceptional.  He usually does high end shotguns but may be will be able to do whatever it is you are looking for or recommend someone.  He's a bit far from east Tennessee but you did say you would like to keep your business in state which he is.  Here's a link to his Facebook page and if that does not work for you I can PM you his phone number.  Ron Neely: CLICK HERE

Does Ron Neely have a stock duplicator? Making stocks from blanks and duplicating to a semi inlet finish is normally two different $$$ disciplines of business. To duplicate a stock by hand from a blank is not for the lack of bank account digits! A half way decent duplicator run.... not so much.
