Beautiful piece of work. Nice chronological demonstration on how you made it.
Do you ever make stocks for other guns?

Thanks! I have a line of stocks for the Airforce rifles and working on adding some other brands and models as time allows.

Beautiful work Loren. That style of muzzle brake will definitely put a harness on that mule kick. I've tested a 457 Challenger with and without the big muzzle brake and there's definitely a lot of difference in recoil.

Thanks! I have only shot it once. It was in the 3D printed stock. It had the brake on it. The recoil was I guess you could say unimpressive with the brake on it. The side blast of air out of the brake was impressive…lol

Life has been busy and just about have the Walnut and Purple Heart stock completed. I took a little side adventure and made this beauty for a Zeus Gen 2 with a 16" barrel. Not my rifle is the 32" Barrel version.

My new stock is absolute 
It turned my Zeus into the most beautiful airgun I've ever seen, and made it waaaay more functional. The weight and length is more balanced, she doesn't feel so front-heavy. And she shoulders much better. The higher and longer comb is actually usable now and is streamlined with the rest of the gun, which changes everything, taking the tension off of your neck, and adding stability into your shoulder. The longer forearm creates more usable areas, while reducing that long tank look in the process. Diamond outdid themselves here.
Absolutely breathtaking.
