Well guys here we go! I got the following parts ordered for my first mod job

Anymore ideas??? This is for my 1377 for starters. Then when i get through with that i will use that experience for the 1322 waiting for its face lift. Im super stoked and cant wait to play.

Thanks all

Thank you. Im not sure what way to go for the stock. I like the wire stock as an option, not sure if straight or bent is better. I also want to keep the custom wood features showing as well, hence no Crosman stock. ive seen some with the tippman stock also. I just dont know what way to go.

I went ahead and bought the 1399 stock for mine, but I'm still thinking about a wire stock..
With the current scope I'm using (a 20mm which sits pretty low) I have to raise the stock up high up against my shoulder to get a good straight view through.
So, a bent wire stock would be my choice.

There is one tippmann option that is steel and wood and that's the AK47 stock. I sanded and refinished to match my rb grips and I thought it turned out fine.
Here is a thread.

Thanks for the good information about the stocks. I order a tippman 98 maddog stock for a paint ball gun, i think its way to "stubby" though. Maybe about 6 to 8 inches long.

Havent received any of my parts yet so i cant mount it up and see how it feels.

I have tried to contact the Workingmans site for a bent wire stock, havent received any replys to my 2 emails. Any other options for a wire stock? What would be a general guide for length of a stock? I do know its a personal preference, but ordering online, sight unseen, some general measurments would be helpful.

Thanks
