Want to pour pewter in Traditions Kentuckey 2 piece stock

(1/2) > >>

topknot:
I'm thinking about trimming a 1/4" off both stock pieces where they meet, then do away with the brass plate and in stall wood dowels instead of the steel pins. Next, hallow out a couple of small areas so the poured pewter will bond the two stock pieces.

Any tips, suggestions, comments welcome.

Thanks

ridjrunr:
Is this a kit or a completed gun?

pathfinder:
I wouldn't trim any wood to shorten the stock, but I would inlet  around the area in some sort of pattern [star points little humps,ect...] then pour. Good idea!

topknot:
The rifle was a kit  just threw together and stained.
I have it all apart, sanding and fitting every thing.

R.M.:
There's been a thread about somebody doing this exact thing. Might have been Captchee. There was photos to boot.
You might want to try searching for it. If I remember correctly, the job looked pretty good.
