Buy recommendations Boyd's Wood Stocks
So I've been considering buying a red laminate stock & pump set, for my 870 wingmaster from Boyd's. Was wondering if any of you guys had some experience buying from them.

You can go to your local dealer and check if they have an account with Gravel. Have them call up with your exact specs and they'll be able to order it for you. Big dealers are better, as they have an assigned Gravel rep that can put in the order. What area do you live? I can point you in the right direction.

you may wait months in any event, especially if you spec. customizations. They do each model in batches - as basically everything to do with guns is - so it could easily be 6mo+
This hobby is not one that rewards impatience.

I bought one for my 6.5 Swede. Love it the only thing I had to do is make a groove for the bolt to close. It has made me much more steady with it with the adjustable cheek rest and thumb hole. Love it

0 issues when i got my AT-one for a 700. Paid like $50 in duties when it landed here but otherwise no issues and quality was there.
Would buy again if i wanted that style of stock again.

Been considering getting the AT-One. Only $50 on duty doesn't sound that bad!

If you do, just ensure you get the pillar bedding if its available for your model.

Just an FYI but you can prepare the customs paperwork yourself and self clear so you won’t have to pay brokerage fees. You just have to alert the shipping company that that’s your intention and then fill out and submit the forms.

Ah, sucks that they are so pricey. But sounds like they make a good product. About how much is the brokerage fee and duty?

I have a bunch of laminate boyds stocks. Love them. Beware that most require minor fitting, and all benefit from epoxy bedding

I'll second the other guy. I have their red laminate At-One stock on my CZ455. It's naturally more expensive than it looks with the CAD/USD conversion, international shipping, and taxes, but they make good stuff and ship to Canada with no issues.
