I hope you're not talking about those "custom" stocks offered for the airArms S400 rifles. If them thangs, IMO are UGGGGGGGGLY . I don't care for the designs at all , Too many rounded edges . kirby

I don't like the design of the stock either. The WOOD on the other hand is BEAUTIFUL!!! I don't think they should have made the whole stock out of Zebrawood though.  Maybe a nice curly maple for the body of the stock and some zebrawood accents and Ebony or black walnut forend schnauble tip and grip cap.

Man...I'n dreamin TOO much lately!

I really like the TAU and Aeron pistols.  I have to agree with David here about the stocks though, they looked like they were carved with a dull butter knife and a hacksaw.  Zebrawood makes nice grips and knife scales, not gunstocks.  The shrouds aren't so bad though, but they belong on a gun with a laminate stock imho.  As they say in Norway, uff da!
