Yes, they're busy. Byt we do have skilled sponsors on this very forum that could help you out in my opinion. For example Steve Corcoran. He has helped me out a couple of times, even from sketches I sent him, and to my FULLY satisfaction.

I have had no problem reaching this company; I have talked to them on several occasions.My brother was very happy with his purchase from them.

So..... Martin will cut a stock for your gun if you supply your own blank?

when i was on the phone with sandre .to finalize payment on my hm1000xx i recently got .i told sandre i wanted another rifle from her,, black and green laminate stock she went and asked Martin about it he said get it from richards i just assumed i would supply blank and martin would cut ,,monday if raw is open i will contact to straighten it out,,, if richards are to cut or raw the way it came off to me raw would cut ,,,one way to make certain,, i will update next week

"So….. Martin will cut a stock for your gun if you supply your own blank?"

Yes.


There may be some reservation/exception but yes they will use your blank - sometime WILDLY figured wood is NOT stable so .......... .

RAW can also ( well they still did a year ago ) replicate any stock you own.


OP-
Boyd's is still recovering from the Loss of Rut-Ply and may be sourcing where they can. Rut-Ply was THE largest laminate supplier in the U.S. . Things are pretty much back to normal now though, keep trying.
