Custom Hatsan Bully...photos

So...I recently got a Hatsan bully .22. I love the gun but was not really thrilled with the aesthetics of the plastic stock design. For a fun project I decided to try and design/fabricate a new stock. I think it turned out ok considering the crude tools and methods I used to fabricate it.

Nice work. How long did this take?

I tinkered on it over the past couple weeks. I'd guess 10-15 hours total. 

With this setup, the back of the gun is exposed so the hammer spring screw is accessible. I'm working on a fitting/knob that will go there to serve as power adjuster

Very interesting indeed, nice job.

what does it weight now? And I see you eliminated the flat metal piece for the fill Probe, myself I just leave my fill Probe in and put one of those caps on it.

I haven't weighed it but it is a bit heavier than the original weight. I used thin mild steel for this because it's cheap and easy to work with. The handle is laminated wood coated with rubber. 

An aluminum version would be much lighter. I do plan on making an improved one eventually.

I did eliminate that flat metal piece because it just seemed like an overly complicated way to mask the fill probe hole.

Wow, awesome work! Looks like RTI Priest. I am getting my Bully next week and I also plan on modifying it something along these lines.
