I'm interested to see whose stock designs people like the best?

Out of every air gun stock and bullpup stock you have ever seen, which one do you like the most? Note, that bullpup stocks and regular stocks are two separate categories so I am asking about both. 

Lets exclude the quality of the wood so it is just the design (the shape) we are talking about. If you could choose one of each to go on all your air guns, which would it be?

Also, if you could choose a firearm stock design to be used on air rifles, that would count too. E.g. If you like the Tavor stock and would like one on your Vulcan and Wildcat etc.

 
I like this stock. The checkering is not important for me. The Mutant would look awesome with it, imo.

Those are all fine choices gentlemen. 

I would have to go with the original Cricket skeleton stock (particularly the 25 with extended forearm). By extension that also means I like the Wildcat stock as it's almost a direct copy. 

For regular rifle stocks I think I might like the Edgun Morona. I'm not sure they actually exist in real life but they look nice in the pics. I like how Edgun puts some thought into making their stocks look interesting while still being functional. I like the look of all their work.

I am a fan of the FN F2000 design on the firearms side and I would love to see something like for a tactical pcp bullpup. A stock like that has tons of room to hide unsightly air bottles on the inside while allowing tons of accessory space on the outside.

"NMshooter"Agreed, Cricket should bring back the Skeleton stock for their bullpup. Granted, it's not as "functional" without the magazine holder but it definitely has the "cool" factor. Unfortunately being a lefty, the Cricket bullpup didn't shoulder well for me. Side-lever was uncomfortable, too bad……...

I took the mag holders out of my bull stock. I don't see the need for storage space on the gun. Mags go in the case or in my coat pocket if I'm walking with the gun. I don't want anything weighing the rifle down or spoiling the balance. That means no mag holders, no cup holders and no beer cooler in the stock.

I think the general rule is that hunting guns (which includes most bullpups) should be light. Bench guns should be heavy.

"spysir"I think Shefeild ( sp ) "made" the best looking, but more importantly, THE best fitting, balancing most usefull shorter rifle stock.

That is nice.

I made a similar style (although not quite as nice) bullpup stock for the Hatsan AT44 out of fiberglass a while ago using the pattern from an old black powder bullpup. This was the stock I copied:



thumbholes are great for wood stocks because they provide some much needed stability. I like the way this one looks traditional and modern at the same time. is it your air gun in the pic?

"NMshooter"Zebra,
If three magazines are going to weigh you down, you better hit the gym buddy, LOL, just kidding
I think Falcon had some really good carbine designs as well. These rifles can't weight but 5 lbs

I love to shoot these sub 20 FPE guns

How is the balance on those Falcons? That's sometimes the issue with light rifles if the stock is skeletonized at the back. They can feel front heavy which just feels heavy, even if they are lighter. They do look very trim though.

Mags don't weigh much on their own but with a stock like the synthetic Cricket 25, any weight saving is welcome if you have to carry the thing in the woods. 

I made a bunch of small weight savings that, on their own, down seem much but together they make a noticeable difference.

I don't like the mag holder in the Cricket stock either. The first time I looked down while squirrel hunting and one of the mag holders was open and one of my $30 mags full of JSB's was missing, I decided I didn't like it. I found the mag though. Now I put them in a small zippered pouch in my pocket. I would trade my mag holder stock for a skeleton one in a heart beat! Any takers?

Cricket synthetic stock here, I live the mag holders , When you do the oring Zonk mod there are there to stay.
If I could put a mag holder on my Mutant I would do it in a heart beat, I have dropped the Mutant mag getting it out of my pocket to load the gun while standing holding the gun.
Mag has been in the dirt, No I am not going to load it,
Oh back to Bull pup stock design,,, Synthetic all the way for me , Just a lot better for me than the nice wood that you just put a scratch on it walking in the mesquites
Thorn bushes and stuff,
I think some of the prettiest has come from some Ed guns I have seen on line, Now you going to pay for that stock!!!!! Knock 400 dollars off and give me a synthetic one please.....
But I am still waiting on my Carbon Fiber Cricket or Mutant stock from ZEBRA, That's a HINT.
Mike
