I love the look of the L118A1 (awp) but it’s impossible to get.

Does anyone know of any custom stocks for a .308 rifle that looks like it?

L118A1 is not the AWP. AWP is the police variant with the shorter barrel and different furniture.

Same shit

No, it's not. You said you want something that matches the iconic look of the L118A1, and the AWP looks different than the L118A1 AW.

AICS sell stocks/chassis. The AICS AT 2.0 line has a thumbhole stocksides conversion. RDSC have the chassis listed at ~$1900CAD, and it looks like the thumbhole conversion is ~$125CAD but they don't list it so you'd need to email them with a part #. It would all be special order, if you called or emailed they'd likely give you a rough timeline and price.

The thumbhole part #'s are: 26722 for fixed, 26723 for folding. PB for Pale Brown, GR for Green, and BL for Black. So, a complete part # for example would be 26722BL for fixed black.

If you're just looking for "close enough" a Tikka in a Sako Green KRG xray chassis might fit the bill
