ANYONE have a idea where to look for a buttstock for a Rem 1900 model?

Here is one for sale on Gunbroker.

You cant find much better than that!

My thoughts exactly. Add up the cost of a walnut blank, and the cost or time to carve, inlet, and checker it... and the price of a good used widow's peak Remington butt plate, and that one looks pretty reasonable.

I think some good steaming would take out most of the dents, and even improve the dent/gouge at the nose of the comb. It doesn't have any dowels or screws through the cheeks like so many Remingtons. But I think I would reinforce and glass bed it so that never happens.

Hard for me to tell, but based on what I can see of the serial number, it looks to be from an 1894.

Much better condition than others I've seen.

Thanks guys, bidding on it

By the checkering pattern it is for an A-quality gun, but what you can't tell from the pictures is it for an early style action or the later style action? Is it for the large frame or a small frame?

Congrats on the Win,

Let me know if you see another one like this
