I guess a replica stock by a good stockmaker would cost - what $3500 plus the wood?

Dave, Are you sure that stock isn't original? Quite the job on it! With the Sterling being the lowest grade, I think you could find a much better example for not a lot more money. Though, if you wanted to stock it yourself, you could have a nice gun that fits you. Paying someone to stock it would put it far above it's actual worth. Chris

I think Chris is right. The stock may be original and shouldn't be replaced. Murphy

that stock is designed to take your mind away from the barrel pitting.

Yup, about $650.00 shipping and handling each way and maybe $1800.00 for the sleeve, (not sleeves). Even Chris would value the gun at at least nine hundred bucks when it's finished.

Well, it may be the orginal stock, but if it is, it needs a butt transplant for me. The trigger guard appears to me to be altered to fit the pistol grip. I just have these desire for a Baker SBT, that my finacial advisor will permit. I will find one, eventually.

There used to be a Baker SBT at the local gunshows around here. Asking price was $3995, if I remember right. Don't remember it having the "neat customized stock" that this one has though.
