However, there are other custom stock names in the post; so in the interest of inclusion, naming those is open to all.

The one
the one under the pro Elite. , and the one over the nickeled 45 pistol. And the Bsa.
The others aftermarket’s are Css made for Theoben and a Airmasters for Venom.
The custom BSA bsa isn’t Steve’s work. MAYBE , BLAIRS.VERY good eye, AGN. The stock on the BSA hasn't been named yet, though.
