A few question before I order

Hello from Canada!

I Thought I would put up a post with a few questions. I thought that a few other newbies may be looing for the same inf. and it may help them also.

So here goes,

I don’t see a cheekpeice on a military buttstock, is it possible to get?

Do you have a picture of the Saddle rifle with a military buttplate that you could send me?

Hand picked wood? Do you get a better grade or ?? What does that do for you?

When you order AA or AAA finish, are they satin or high gloss? Do you have a choice? How many more coats of oil do you get?

Is there any strength issues with the .45-110 and presentation grade wood?

When you order Bone and Charcoal finish does that include the buttplate, lever, and all the screws?

Can I put in a deposit now to get my place in line before I decide on what gun I want?

Oh, and thanks for the catalogue,

Darrin

Good morning Sir, I copied all of your questions and will answer under each one.

I don’t see a cheekpeice on a military buttstock, is it possible to get?

-----No

Do you have a picture of the Saddle rifle with a military buttplate that you could send me?

------ No, same as above, it is impossible.

Hand picked wood? Do you get a better grade or ?? What does that do for you?

----- It does just what it says, you don't get a higher grade, but you do see what you get, which may be a little different figure than what I would pick for you.

When you order AA or AAA finish, are they satin or high gloss? Do you have a choice? How many more coats of oil do you get?

-----They are satin and there really is no choice.

Is there any strength issues with the .45-110 and presentation grade wood?

---- No

When you order Bone and Charcoal finish does that include the buttplate, lever, and all the screws?

----- You don't want the screws color cased, but everything else, yes.

Can I put in a deposit now to get my place in line before I decide on what gun I want?

---- Yes you may, in fact a lot of people do it this way.

I hope I have answered your questions well enough to help. Thanks Kirk Bryan

Thank you for your quick response! A couple more quick ones.

On the saddle rifle, the web page says it is available with a military buttplate?

What is the standard length of pull on a military stock (Hartford)? What about Shotgun stock on a #1?

Are all the models you offer based on the originals? Are any unique to Shiloh?

Again thank you

Darrin

Hi Darrin, We just up-dated our web page and you found one of the mistakes, sorry, but a military just will not work with a cheek rest.

The military stock will be 14" - 14 !/4" pull.

The montana rough rider and the saddle rifle are Shiloh stock designs. As far as all of the metal, it is true blue to the original. Thanks Kirk
