Rumor is they won't stay bent...
and rumors have little value. Like most of your posts Frank, I bet you have no actual experience with the topic at hand. Have you had a stock bent or bent one yourself? If so did it return to the original position? I guarantee my bends. I have had a couple that were difficult and wanted to return to original position. Sometimes you need to bend a gun several times as spring back is very hard to gauge. You have to go farther than the desired final dimension and try to "figure" how much the gun will move back. I am happy to bend the gun again for no charge. Each piece of wood is different but in general they stay when bent.
