Not the round ones, but the ones made from flat metal.

Are they usually steel, or aluminum?

I'm guessing aluminum for weight.

Also, if you have one, would you mind posting measurements on how wide, and how tall they are

Length i will adjust for my own use, but i would like some demensions to start from, for sturdiness.

The last one I made was (I trying to remember its been about 8 years) 3/4"x1/8" aluminum I picked up at the hardware store.

I have one flat t-stock made by Lapco. It also incorporates a bottom line ASA. Cannot give you the measurements right now, sorry.

When you can, a PM would be mighty nice.

Sure, if you don't mind waiting several months! I'm a security contractor so I work away from home. I have not even shot the last 3 markers I bought :(

Nearly every flat TStock I've handled has been made from 1/4" or 3/8" thick by 3/4" wide aluminum strapping, either bent or welded together to create the desired form, and milled/drilled to reduce the weight.

I built a TStock like that Lapco one once, but as soon as I got it finished, I realized that I much prefer the feel of round tube/rod stocks instead.

Oh well . . . . . .

Thanks Ryan,

I have acess to some aluminum sheet, available pretty thick.

I also have acess to the tools to weld, cut, dril, etc etc.

I think i'm going to make some T-Stocks :)
