CVA Kentucky Rifle Rebuild

[Gvilleddie]

There was a post not too long ago concerning reshaping a CVA / Traditions stock. I have searched for it and can’t find it. Can somebody help me out?
I plan to refinish my 70’s era CVA rifle. Make it a one piece stock with a wooden insert. Thin up the stock a little and refinish. I have a Woodsrunner but this old CVA is like an old friend and I still enjoy shooting the old flintlock. Suggestions for this project are welcome. Thx, E..

Thanks Phil, that’s what I was looking for. Looks very nice. Do you have an opinion on gluing up a one piece stock? E..

Yes, my opinion is you won’t improve the appearance or function.
