Gunsmithing McMillan Fiberglass Stock Repair Work Recommendations

[kft101]

Any recommendations for a shop that can professionally and reliably (as in not take my stock, money and not have no updates or response to status queries for months on end) fix the target butt system that has fallen out of my McMillan fiberglass stock, as well as do some minor patch work on the gel coat (seal the exposed end of the cheek piece, patch up some areas of the stock where the fiberglass cloth is starting to show)?

Since McMillan has become more a “production company” since they changed ownership, they are no longer doing such post-production repair work on discontinued or low volume stocks/molds.

Thanks in advance!

That's real shitty if McMillan to not take care of you, if that's actually the case.

Is stock doc still around?

There was a member here who was the go-to guy for stock repairs, or aftermarket upgrades like KMW hardware, etc.

I think it's this guy @jducos

Super. Unconscionable behavior, but not unexpected given the direction they've been going.

Sweet talk Manner’s and then buy a stock from them.

that sucks. just a few years ago McMillan rebuilt and worked on a 3 way adjustment system they hadn't made in a decade. great coms, cheap, great work done.

really sad they won't even work on their own stuff anymore.

Who bought them?

Oh yeah, same one that bought Defiance……

The "Old McMillan" did that work? Cuz that doesn't look like caliber of their old work. Screws in the foam filler, grinding the buttpad and hitting the fiberglass? Weird....
