Description
JOHN DICKSON & SON, EDINBURGH REPLACEMENT MODEL 7000 SERIES STOCK.
Model 7000 Series, ROUND ACTION Ejector, John Dickson and Son of Edinburgh Replacement Stock.
This will save someone a FORTUNE even at this price. Also to factor in is the time delay PLUS VAT at 20% if you decide to opt for brand new. This is a Full length Stock and should give a pull length at approx. 14” (355mm). Difficult to measure without the action etc. in place. HIGHLY Decorative Solid Walnut Straight Handed Stock with Extra Fine Hand Cut Chequering to the Grip and Butt Face.
For one of these guns a new stock commission with timber like this is likely at least 3 or 4x as much.
At the time of this advert there are a pair advertised on Guntrader:

AT £26,500 (AS DETAILED for a full gun) THIS STOCK IS COPPERS of the cost it should and could be. In fact if I was buying these guns I would grab this stock. Very handy by way of a readily available spare that should require minimal work to swap over if EVER required. Go one further and have it pre-fitted ready. That way NOTHING will ever happen to the existing!
£1299.99
****ANYONE NOT UK BASED ITS GETTING POINTLESS TRYING TO SHIP OUT OF THE COUNTRY. COURIERS AS WELL AS AUTHORITIES NOW CONSIDER A PIECE OF WOOD AS A PROHIBITED ITEM AND WILL NOT PROCESS / DELIVER. PURE STUPIDITY BUT WHATS NEW ABOUT THAT IN THIS WORLD.
THE STEEL SHOT DEBACLE?
FIRST THING: Given lead is SO dangerous, can we ask about getting every lead water main replaced? After all, ANYONE with one of those still supplying water has zero choice. LETS PUT THAT QUESTION TO HEALTH AND SAFETY EXECUTIVE AS WELL AS THE GOVERNMENT.
That is every child’s grazed knee washed out with lead infested water (direct into their blood stream. Every glass of juice. Every cup of tea or coffee, Vegetables washed and cooked in the stuff. ALL that DELICIOUS Gravy. Cloths washed in it. Then we bath in the sodding lead infested stuff!
HOW DO THEY DEFEND THIS FACT?
THEN THERE ARE more and more Non-Toxic Shot alternatives being produced. WITH near matching performances to traditional lead and close to, if not matching pressures. Take a look at Horton Gunmakers for their own entry into this debacle of modern-day shooting. APPARENTLY so lethally deadly to shooters and game eaters? How is it every old lead water main supply pipe is not getting ripped out and replaced? To my mind it’s a DISGRACE that the shooting industry did not simply ask that one simple question. NO, they saw an excuse to charge a fortune and that mainly to the detriment of the quarry. Just my opinion …..for what its worth?
Anyway, take a look for yourself:
NOW, TRY and help speed up availability. I WILL suggest that YOU pass on details to everyone you know who shoots. Then ask whoever we buy from WHY they are not DEMANDING cartridges made in this material? Basically VOTE with your WALLET.
YES, it will take a little time for everything to filter through, but patience IS a virtue. It also allows everyone who wants to keep hold of their ‘old favourite’ for the rest of their lives. Even pass it on to the next generation and hopefully beyond!
On that note I AM looking into the possibility of stocking some direct from Steve at Hortons. RING for an update and keep checking the web site.
