Mini G Stock Modifications

[stjohn4]

Hi everyone,

I sent my M1 off today and I was looking at buying synthetic stocks online.

Does anybody have this stock?

Will I have to modify this stock in any way to fit my Mini G? Or will the innards fit in right out of the box?

Thanks

I had one, I sold it. If you can find one used, you shouldn't have to modify it unless it rubs on something (for a Standard Mini-G, a Mag Fed would require modification for the detachable mag). Accuracy is not usually great on these though. I had it on a full size Garand and it did ok, it was way too front heavy on the full size, but the mini-g should be better balanced. YMMV.

Any Garand stock should work, you might have some fitting to do though, but nothing more than if it was on a normal Garand.

There are no real great synthetic options for Garands. I looked high and low. The best I could come up with is a custom shop that will make one for you out of layers of fiberglass or kevlar, should be a nice stock but pricy.

This was the place:

Sometimes the oprod side channel has to be sanded down. I think that's the only mod that could be needed. This goes for using it on a standard Garand as well.
