Has anyone used the stock ? i am wondering if a 2260 size air tube will Fit and how you like the stock ?
-
The Spike Camp looks to be very similiar to At-One Thumbhole, at half the cost. :) I can say the At-One Thumbhole fits the Fortitude just fine, and suspect it will work on the 2260. ie it is my understanding the 2260 has the same diameter tube, trigger assy, and stock lug arrangement. The hole for the gauge may be annoying, though.

I have one in Forest Green laminate on a Disco. I like it. I did add a 1/4" butt spacer to make the pull a tad longer. I may add another. One option that isn't offered but you can buy on their website it to pony up another 20 buck or so for the longer rubber buttstop. I'll probably end up doing just that in addition to the 1/4" spacer I added.
I do like the feel of it and it was 99 bucks for a thumbhole stock. Only a few buck more for walnut which is what I thought I wanted and changed my mind at the last second.....😣

Mr. Dan, it seems that you and I are alike in taste ;D
There is a certain appeal to ss DC Crosman parts even though there are higher end airguns saturating the market.
I have seen you purchase a Beeman and a Daystate, then sold it almost right away ;D
-
Oh, there was a thread here somewhere re the Spike stock's forearm overlapping the 2260 tube.
The forearm might be too long for your 2260 tube :(
-
I asked the Boyd's representative re the length of the forearm and I remember it being an inch or so too long for the 2260 tube.
I posted it here somewhere but that was about 3 or 4 mos ago.
-
I haven’t ordered the tube from Don yet so will order it longer than 2260 and use an 18 inch barrel instead of 14.6 LW barrel.
-
Good call ;D
I will post the measurement here in a while.
Got to find that thread 1st.

Geno, Not sure if it compares to the Exclusive stocks you have. ;)
All Boyd's are based on a 13.5" LOP, which was the established norm from PB's. It think it took into consideration for wearing a heavy fall coat during hunting season.
-
From the Boyd's rep: from the center of the gauge hole, the Spike forearm is 13" long.
You would need at least 20" of ss DC tube for it to clear the end of the forearm.
I mean 19" would do but it is too risky, plus 20" would afford you to mount a barrel band.
-
Thanks Rick67 yes the HW & Daystate & AA are all very nice but i love to tinker with my Lego guns so guess i will keep doing that . I have an 18 inch .22 barrel coming from Mellon in a few days and i will see exactly what tube but 20 inch sounds about right .
-
Hey John I like that orange color. Cant stand it gonna have to add another Boyd to my array. I see it looks like it has a adj. cheek piece and rear pad is that included also? I haven't gotten any from exclusive since the CV-19 hit and I am hungry about now. Wonder it will set me back to race one like yours? Thank you sir. Geno
-
Duh it just hit me that must be the AT-1 version in your pic. I think I like Bangkok style better but have been waiting over a year now for a red laminated one, and they only fit the pistol grips. So I am due for one of these for now. LOL Kinda like Dan said I wouldn't do these things to my FX or AA guns that's what the leggos are for. Thanx G

You get that extra adjustability and and parts, for the additional $100 over the Spike Camp, for the At-One. FWIW: I picked this up used from a GTA member.

It sounds like it is same length as At-One Thumbhole. I measured 19", and you would want at least 20" to fit a barrel band.

Yes, I like orange, aka Autumn Blaze!
Thanks for the confirmation regarding the length, sir ;D
