AoA has a LNIB HW30 Laminate .177 for sale in their used guns for $299. Somebody buy it before I do........please!!...................the Mailman

C'mon! Somebody step up. I just called, they want $31 to ship to NY. I passed, but if it's still there in the AM, I feel myself weakening................the Mailman

Who gives up a sweet little gun like that unless it shoots sideways :o

hmmmmmmmmm

Maybe for the reason I would not buy it. The HW30 is a nice light carbine. Why add an extra pound of weight?
-
Jeff, thank you for the post. I like the looks of the HW30 laminate although it makes my Corcorran pepper laminate HW30 stock a bit less unique. I decided to try it out.
I appreciate the heads up, although my wife might have a different opinion.
I'll post photos once she arrives and compare it to the custom Laminate stock!

IIRC, the ad for that one said it had a cracked wrist. Was that the case? Did you repair it yourself?

Thankfully, that was a different rifle for sale. This one arrived NIB with tags! Felt some drag on the cocking lever after a few shots and need to polish and lube the arm before it galls. Seems like a nice rifle!
I have fixed a couple of stocks wit hairline cracks. One was from my own blunder. Both were fixed with a long drill bit going down the grip, then some good wood glue in the crack and a large deck screw with a bit of epoxy in the hole first. Easy with walnut to sand and refinish to hide the repair.

Good on you. ;D
