Wolverine Adjustable Comb Work

IcySwan1 said:

I like my Wolverine HP R except for the cheek weld. I have a piece of foam attached to it and it works well but is not a neat set up. I see some folks in the UK modify the standard stock for an adjustable comb but I haven’t found anybody Stateside that does the work.

Has anyone added an adjustable comb to the Wolverine in the US and, if so, who did it?

Thanks for any suggestions

It is not hard to do yourself... just have to be brave and you will need to use a band saw and some hand chisels and some drill bits.
Ebay has a variety of hardware for cheek combs - the good ones are not cheap but are worth the extra money. I may have one or two extra that i have saved... PM me if interested.

I had a guy here local do a shotgun stock for me. Excellent top notch work and he is an avid vintage Airgun collector, at least the last I knew. No clue if he would work on an airgun stock or not. Check out Tron Stockworks in Milford , Mi.

Yeah, like cavedweller pointed out, I DIY'ed it on an Air Arms walnut stock. It's fairly easy to do, but if you're not up to the task, could be disastrous.
You might try searching for shotgun stock adjustment fitting, or similar. Shotgunners need to have their stocks pretty custom to fit their build.

@IcySwan1. Found some info for you. Worth a shot getting ahold of this guy. This is the work he did on my citori. Contact info in last pic.

I don’t think Tron accepts new customers right now, old ones, yes, I think.

Besides, that cheek rest mod is very expensive at $400? something.

I believe Graco does the same and is a “little” bit cheaper.

I suggest you find a cabinet maker or woodworker near your area and let him cut it.

Insist on the shape that you want and let him do several simulations until you are satisfied.

The cost should not be prohibitive as you are taking the item to him.

I had a beech stock cut by the famous Doan Trevor; he’s almost my neighbor and he charged me a whooping $15.00 for the cut.

I did the hardware myself.

Although it was my first time with the metal stuff, I’m an inveterate perfectionist:
