User name is IanB I think I have a massive post count of about six, but read the forum pretty much everyday.

 

 

Word of warning to anyone choosing colours from the McMillan website, some of the colours on their colour chart are not what you get in real life, as I have just found out.

 

I saw my A5 the other day and had it marbled in medium green and light gray, the light gray looks very close to off white on the McMillan website, but believe you me it's very very gray. My stock looks hideous and will be going to see Mr Clark for a bit of a make over, if I manage to get some photo's of it I will post them on here.

Sweet lord...that is just a thread of purest rifle porn.

If it was me , and I wanted a nice looking , green / grey mable camo , I would copy the Canadians ( C3A1 ) , and go 70% OD green & 30% Grey and be done .

50% olive 25% black 25% med tan 4 hours with 1200 wet&dry 5 minutes buffing and a liberal spray of back to black, not to mention a four month wait and a £400 bill, was it worth it, hell yes

 

 

Mods any chance of making this a sticky?

Hi Elwood, I have just ordered an almost identical stock to yours. Would you mind explaining how you acheived the excellent finish please?

 

Regards

Hi,

 

I came across this blog post showing a lot of McMillan patterns. Thought it would be a good addition to this post.

Hey, I just finishing compiling a massive photo gallery of over 200 McMillan stocks to help people find their perfect color ratio. I thought you guys might find it helpful.

Cant understand why people camo up there rifle but leave a big black scope on top what's the point you might as well not do the stock in the first place

[poacher]

Id have the camo in the last pic if I were you by far the best

Hi folks, thinking of ordering a McMillan Stock with a swirl. What do we reckon about 50% olive, 25% Medium Tan and 25% Dark Grey?

Are any these available for the tikka t3x

Love these stocks

These are the McMillan 50th Anniversary M40A1 Smear Stocks, released this year.

These were really hard to get hold of. McMillan won't sell to the UK direct. 

They were released 10 at a time, and often gone within seconds.

These are for some M40A1 builds that Baldie is going to do for me.

Pretty cool.

The originals were hand made by McMillan. The green and brown were finger-painted in the mould so every one was different.

Highly sought after stocks which preceded the more standard woodland cam.

Shown alongside a walnut M40 stock.

They have the correct Wichita sling swivels and 5lb sniper fill, plus the Pachmyer butt pad.
