Wooden Stocks for Mags

[Mosfet]

Hi All,
I was sitting here trying to get a break from work and I was thinking on paintball of course.
While I myself am trying to get into tourny ball, I have an old mag, and happen to like building things, so I was thinking of making a wooden stock, and probably a trigger setup so its more proportionate to a Ruger 22 or a M1 Carbine.
Possibly Thompson SMG, or other types that fit well.

Yes its not "Agg," and its not Tourney fashionable. so you closed minded stay out.
What do you rec-ballers think?
Would it be something you guys would like?
If the first one turns out well, I may try making more.
I'm just wondering if theres an actual demand out there for custom wooden stocks.

good idea however i think durability might be questionable, but yeah make one and let us know. the stock would probly be ok but as for the trigger im not sure

[themish]

if the stock is to be attached to the rail, then count me in for sure

[SlartyBartFast]

Well, you just cut out a real rifle body/stock to accept the Mag rail and body and cut down the Mag trigger frame to hold just the trigger.

The Mag would just drop in and could be held in place with a setscrew, or the frame screw could be used.

^^ seen someone who did that... looked pretty cool^^^

Yeah, I think it was modeled after the M-1 Garand.

If it's anything like a real rifle stock... there's zero reason at all to question the durability.

make sure to use mahogany stock for this wood working project because thats the same wood they use on gun stocks because its durable and ware resistant

[Mosfet]

Holy crap all of these are expensive!!!
Even the ones made from crappy Air Soft Plastic parts!

They look real nice tho!

Wow! I was actually thinking along more simpler lines, mag + wooden stock + some small metal bits (trigger, guard, maybe a butt plate)
Definately nothing as fancy as these things! :P

I was looking for em a while ago, to bad I decided to get a Shocker :P Once I get a job though, I wanna build a Mil Sim mag, I think it would be fun.

[Mosfet]

Thats kinda funny, cause I just picked up a shocker, and once I get some cash, I'm building a stock for my mag!
