Added not too much weight (the timber is really light weight) but huge improvement for handling

Great job.
Not to take away from your handy work, but I see they have the little badger with a timber stock available in Australia.

Yes I saw it and think the timber stock should be a good idea because the wired stock is too terrible to use it never give me a solid feel it really affects accuracy too
I have this rifle for years don’t want to buy other same type break action rimfire rifle
I kind of like SVD style skeleton stock also don’t want to lose the ammo holder in the butt stock so I decide to make my own
Bought an old timber stock for 5 dollars and use a few super glue and some old clothes then I have the unique little badger

Very pretty. But side tracking a bit, what do you think of the firearm itself and what is it's main use?

the tiny timber stock with blued barrel and black colour action/receiver looks better than the camo…

Direly needs a grenade launcher.

Yes that is a request if you can manage it.

Makes sense if you think about it. You get one warning shot. Comply or been obliterated.

Wouldn't a plastic one suit the rifle better as it seems to be going away from what its meant to be? well to me anyway.

timber is light and easy to modify for me
I bought a plastic butt stock as well but find out it doesn’t fit the purpose

You’ve put a lot of work into that buttstock.

But what might have been neat would be some sort of compartment.

I had a litter badger which I regretfully sold. I didn’t really use it much but they are a fun project to make something unique.
But in the box new it came with a little screw on tube I think which had a little cleaning kit. A brush on a string and I can’t remember.

I did do the same as you with the rail set up because the plastic one was useless.

But anyway the usual goal is a bare bones survival rifle, like pilots would carry. And people often make use of the skeleton stock to have a pouch with a pocket knife, cleaning kit, stuff.
Sometimes a military surplus molle that fits or something.

So some sort of compartment or capacity to carry the cleaning kit would be neat.

I also put I little flash hider on mine and well, I thought it was cool anyway :)
