[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1083674, member: 24284"] For that matter, I've seen some wood stocks where the metal wasn't half way in, too. Usually by someone more concerned with "highly figured" wood instead of "fit & finish". That "fit & finish" is where the dollars involved with stockmaking are. The cost of the wood can be minimal compared to the labor costs. Unfortunately, that senario has been turned around by some, concentrating on the 'pretty wood' , not the skill needed to turn that wood into a presentable stock. [/QUOTE]
