| Does Wenig still make M14 stocks?
I've seen a number of stocks from DGR made by Wenig for the Garand and M1 Carbine but nothing for the M1a/M14. If Wenig does make them for the M1a will the stock require fitting or is it a 100% drop-in? THX |

I spoke with Dean (DGR) a few months ago about the Wenig M14 stocks. The standard Wenig M14 stock has a heavy profile like the Boyds and Dean wants the slim profile like the Garand stocks he's currently offering. I already have the gun and the cash stashed for when he's ready. |

| Wenig/DGR M1A stocks
On Monday we will be shipping a sample M1A stock set back to Wenig with what I feel is the final touches. When removing the selector cut, Wenig failed to allow for the connector lock pin. That has been corrected along with asking Fred to cut 1/32" off the front of the stock. His cut right now matches military issue, but I wanted it shortened to allow slight clearance to the front band. The wood hand guard has been another challange, but I think we have that worked out also. It will be a little thicker then the original military wood hand guards, but that is needed to keep them from cracking. I found the fit to be very good; the receiver into the stock and a tight trigger group. These stocks are going to need some final fitting, but that is better then a loose "drop in". This has been a long ordeal, but fun. I am starting to get excited! We expect to have these stocks ready by mid December, offer them in standard grade walnut, Bastogne Hybrid walnut, extra fancy walnut and maple. Thanks, Dean DGR |
