[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 968813, member: 24284"] You might find a 'hobbiest' who will take on something like that, or someone who doesn't know any better. I bought a left handed wood stock off of GunBroker and modified it to use as a pattern for the duplicator. Wasn't hard to find, was bit beat-up, but I didn't need a 'good' one, anyway. If converting from RH to LH,,,, what about the cheek piece? If we're talkin' synthetic you'd want one without a cheek piece and unfinished. Seems it'd be cheaper in the long run to get a LH model to begin with. Sure, anything can be done,,, but at what cost? Makin' "something" out of "nothing" isn't 'gunsmithing',,, it's just jackin' around. [URL="http://www.redhawkriflescom"]www.redhawkriflescom[/URL] usually has LH H-S Precision stocks if synthetic is what you want. Alot of stock duplicators have LH patterns for the 700 if wood is your choice. I spotted several very nice factory (too good for pattern) LH stocks on GB, while I was looking for a 'beater' to make a pattern out of. [/QUOTE]
