FWB Snatched it up

Two within about a week. Out of the blue. Last evening (around 1:30 am) I searched something on eBay and when I scrolled down further past the results I found this. That's why I search with my laptop. Searching with a phone is like looking into a room through the keyhole. The finish and the butt pad look well deteriorated but this stock will be lovingly restored. I'll have to fit another pad. NP.
Another FWB stock and judging by the age of the pad I guess it could be the older Air Rifle Headquarters. Has an HW trigger guard on it. I'm anxious to see it
Agree 100%, It looks like a legit Custom 120 stock from the Robert Law days. Congrats (y)

Kwk, the grip cap and butt pad look indentical to my old ARH120 minus the clearcoat finish. If u got cheap you scored big time!
 
Did some snatching myself. Got these when JM was selling them a few years ago. A couple belonged to mj102.
JM was not happy when he made all those beautiful stocks folks were demanding and no-one was buying. I got some great deals!!! Now he's all done making and they're almost impossible to get.

Those are really nice.
My ape hands are too wide for the pistol grip. The curved shape infringes on my pinky. Genetics.........🦧
I might build a 124 for one of our sons. It fits his normal hands.
Jim had some great close out deals. I generally prefer his style to the Custom Stocks UK designs or Corcoran (same pistol grip on everything) and Jim offered nicer wood than CS does.
