What kind of stock is that on the 10/22?
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

It is a Fajen stock. Bought it from MidwayUSA. It is the non-adjustable one, I couldn't see spending another $30 dollars when it fits me ok. I may have to give it a paint job though, the forearm is very smooth, might have to apply some grip tape to it.

This is the adjustable version, I didn't see the non-adjustable one like I have. It was $89.

Out of curiosity.   Are people at those matches using the traditional sitting position with elbows on knees or is anyone using the full arm cradle or forearm-on-knee that is used in air rifle field matches?

I saw most of the people at the match I went to using the more traditional sitting/kneeling positions. After seeing those pictures you posted, I may try that and see how it works for me. Thanks for posting that!

The air rifle folks have been using arm-on-knee-cradle for some time.   More recently I've seen pictures where they are using a kneepad to rest the rifle directly on the knee. (on the pad on the knee)   Some have even built up (down) the forearm of their stock so it rests better on their knee.   Here's a better picture of the arm-on-knee position.    If the rifle fits and you can get into that position (some of us don't bend well), then I think it's better than the traditional two-handed hold....if legal in your competition.

I am at work, so sometimes I can't see some pics because of the filters they have in place. Oh well, I guess I will check again when I get home.  ;D

I guess we need to start taking 'porn' out of the picture names. :'(
