bja105 Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 I'm getting a type 38 sporter, rebareled to .308. The stock might be the original, but slimmed and very ugly. Ugly and it does not fit me. And realy ugly. Does anyone have any experience with an aftermarket stock? Do these rifles usualy have bottom metal extending behind the trigger guard? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TONEY Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 i have'nt seen any sporters with the metal left on. Boyds has got stocks for the japs, probably have to do a lot of inleting I've read each factory's rifles were a little differnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bja105 Posted December 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 Thanks for the info. I guess I could get the stock, and cut the triggerguard to match the inletting. round the couners with a file. Sound like a plan? pros/cons? Could anyone post pics of sporters and how the bottom metal was handled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tang ex on the trigger gaurd was ground off right behind the rear action screw. think there just spot welded together On my stock the bottom metal looked inleted like a mauser, looked like on the top they had inleted for about an inch of the tang but left it out, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
