But this action will not go into that stock, I will put my other .30 into it,

This action will go into a Tac stock and will be tuned to shoot bullets in the 100 FPE range.

Now it has just re-appeared! What tha --

I want one!

Wrote Evanix twice now. No reply in three weeks!

I guess Air Venturi would be the next thin to try.

I think they are super busy bringing the new lines into production,...it's a very small company almost looks like a one man operation,...when I communicate with them I do directly with Mr Lee and I think he does just about everything there.

I'll Pm you his Email

Yeah I like that too, much contrast with my other Thumbhole in grain and color,

Will take pictures when I swap stocks and scopes around to upgrade my line up to the next stage,......one .25 and one .30 set up for blind sniping and one .25 and one .30 set up for walking/climbing long hunts.

Manny, congrats on your new to you .30 RS! I’m sure you’ll put her to good use :). My uncle (deceased now) has a beach house on NS Kawela Bay I used to stay at...miss that place...a little piece of heaven...

The color on their stocks is dark enough to be beautiful. Much darker than in most pictures. But not dark enough to cover the grain.

Sadly, many AG, even expensive ag's are now coming with almost no finish o them. Dry, light color with virtually no finish.

You can actually see the hand finishing on the RS if you can j get the light just right. Nicely done! ;) Blows a lot of the current manufacturers away. They could take a lesson from Evanix.   ;)

Thanks for posting this Manny! 8)
