I have to admite it: I hate oval inserts in the stock with initials or symbols.

But I love letters or symbols inserted directly in the stock.

They add so much detail and quality to a gun!!

I know premade letters where available to buy , son the owners initials could be fitted to the stock. Anyone knows of they are still available??

I have already made in silver, family logos that where inserted in the stock, but would love to insert brass letters. The ones I have seen also had tiny pegs soldered to the back side that will help retain the letter to the stock.

I will try to post an image of what I am looking for.

Nowadays letters could be but with laser and small peg welded, but if already available, that would be best

I’m not a fan of ovals either; however, I’ve never seen the kind of letters you describe. Please post a picture if you find one.

I far prefer an oval, here is my Gibbs .303 and you can see the letter "J" above the heel.

I prefer ovals over initials, but I dislike initials. One of my Cashmores has a blank that i have thoight about having engraved with a grouse, but it is hard to let go of the gun to have it done.
