Picked up a Woox chassis for my Savage Model 12 in 204 Ruger for dirt cheap. Comes with a flush cup in the rear and nothing on the from. Flush cup sat too low for my sling so I found a washer in my parts drawer and stuck that in there to make it a little more pronounced and now my sling fits in that flush cup. I ordered a set of flush cups from grovtec so that I can install a front flush cup so I can sling the rifle when hunting.
The chassis came with a messed up rear action screw and no front action screw. Reused the rear action screw from the original stock and found a set of left over r700 socket head action screws and ended up taking my dremel with a cutoff wheel and "custom" making a front action screw. Sure the front and rear screws are two different Allen sizes. But as a wise friend once said, "it's gud enuf".
I was originally going to buy a mini arca rail to use on this chassis so I could set it on my tripod when I go coyote/ pdog hunting. But in a stroke of big brain intellect, I remembered that the anvil 30 takes arca AND pic rail attachments. So I found a small mlok pic rail and slapped that bad boi on there for a tripod attachment point.
Then came the issue of a bipod. I could either run a full length arca rail and replace the pic rail with that so I could use my Ckye pod or just figure something else out and run the Harris I picked up from a fellow hide member. Well. In true bubba fashion, throwing caution to the wind, I found a single sling stud in my parts drawer and said yolo. Unscrewed the front screw for the mlok rail, and threaded that sling stud in there. Sure the Harris over hangs a little past the forend. But functionally is key here and after all, it's a savage.
Feel free to post your bubba related rifles and what all you did to hack them up in the name of functionally and to save some money.
