Adjustable comb made from common hardware for less than 10 bucks. Nothing else would have fit this stock. The flash distorts the red in the aniline dye stain. Looks much better in natural light.
For a program with a safe full of kiddie rifles, these combs can be knocked out quickly if you are willing to sacrifice the cosmetics of plugged holes. Simply clamp the stock to the underside of the drill press to index the shaft holes, cut the comb after the holes are drilled, counterbore for collars and assemble with epoxy. Less than an hour. Beats the hell out of risers made from carpet scraps and duct tape. ;)
Drill and tap for the knurled set screws after the collars are epoxied in. Do it from both sides on ambidextrous stocks so you don't lose that feature.
Interesting pin-mounted trigger on the Valmet. A sear engagement window but no user adjustments. The window was for the smiths at the factory to do final stoning A 2-stager with a crisp break of less than a pound, it remains a most excellent trigger.
Hardly my best craftsmanship as it was done as a volunteer to a hard price point, but as ugly as it is, the trigger is so nice I can't resist playing with this old rifle. It's fun to watch the hole print where the crosshairs were through the scope (and a unique experience for an old Hi-Power guy). It also really likes Federal No. 711 Gold Medal:
Best efforts notwithstanding, at 13lbs 14oz without accessories, it remains too heavy for any juniors we have in a hundred-kid program that don't already own their own rifle, and we'll sell it to contribute toward another Match 64.
