Hello and thank you in advance!
I picked up the barrel, lock and all other necessary components to complete a Navy Arms 1863 Springfield. As per the previous owner the stock broke years ago and was not repairable, it was then discarded. I am hoping I can assemble the rifle for my son.
I have found new reproduction stocks at places like Dixie and Dunlop (Which require finishing) but I am also searching for used reproduction stocks.
My question:
Is it likely that a used 1861or 1863 stock from euro arms, Armi sport... etc will work (with some tweaking) for the barrel, lock and components that I have?
Thank you for your help!
