If anyone in Australia is interested in upgrading their Norinco (Or puma, if you may call it) from that cheap, ugly polymer stock into something a little prettier, I think a phone call to Hatcher's stocks is the way to go. This is just the product semi finished, with a little bit of light sanding before photographing:


The inletting will need a minor bit of working to get the action + barrel to fit, but it's definitely going to be a great fit at that.

The stock itself is made from X grade English Walnut, while there are definitely prettier options than this out there, wetting the surface with a bit of water brought out some purdy strip patterning which only come up with the stock tiled in the right angle in the sunlight. I'll continue work on this one and then post pictures as I go along.
