PossumHollow Report post Posted September 16, 2018 One of my stock cuffs for combination guns. The 20 gauge 17/22 rimfire is a new addition to the lineup. This one is in brown Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plinkercases Report post Posted September 16, 2018 I like the contour your choice for the cuff relative the line of the stock. Very nice. I posted a cuff with eyelets once on a firearms and was jumped on for threatening the stock finish until I was able to prove that the lace (para-cord here?) combined with the setting of the eyelet into the leather prevented direct contact. Normally I like creasing on all edges but this looks nice and clean and works very well without I think. Well done. (of course always nice to see the whole forearm..... please?)

PossumHollow Report post Posted September 16, 2018 No whole firearm here just a broken stock for modelling purposes Thank you for the kind words, yes correct lacing and setting of the eyelets prevents them from directly contacting the stock. I like gutted paracord for lacing them on, I can get them tighter and it lays flatter than leather lace in me experience. Most of my stuff is pretty plain and utilitarian. I like the make stuff that is quality and durable, but something someone won't be afraid of using hard and getting a dent or scratch so I tend to keep things simple in most cases Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plinkercases Report post Posted September 16, 2018 Sounds like your leatherwork uses the old firearms adage - Guns are tools and if they aren't marked you aren't using them! I don't have any safe queens ... have had an "oh crap" moment or two but still they aren't for show. - WAIT... just realised I lied... I have a Henry Golden Boy that I am very protective of... that's it. But I still actually use it! Good observations on the cord versus lace... I will have to try that.

Clintock Report post Posted September 17, 2018 Wouldn’t mind having that on one of my guns! Looks nice and clean. I’m a fan of simple work myself. To me it looks cleaner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
