Tru-Flite Barrel Block Stock

#1 Postby AlanF » Fri May 25, 2012 5:43 pm

Have just been sent a picture of a new stock from Tru-Flite. Its made to fit Barnard Ps and squeezes into F-Open weight limits with a 32" parallel profile barrel and NF scope.
Not sure about price, but it'd be very nice for someone wanting to put something together quickly - would suit a 7mm or 30 cal for Raton!

That colour scheme makes it one good-looking rifle. (Much nicer than the pink one on the True-Flite website - had to go looking for more info after seeing this post.)

That is one good looking rifle. Any info on the stock pricing and whether they will offer for any other actions?

They would probly do a flat top Quick, you can then inlet for whatever you wanted. Wouldn't be a budget build by the looks of that thing though.

Its actually a barrel block stock, so just needs to cater for trigger and bolt handle position. I'll try to find out what the price is and whether they cater for other actions yet.

Price is NZ$1800. With the current exchange rate, plus GST I estimate total cost of about A$1620 + freight from NZ. So far they're only made to suit the Barnard P, which cost about A$1700, so with scope rail you'd be looking at a complete rifle for about $3500.

Man, that's a tad out of my price range! But still very nice indeed.

Does that price include a fitted barrel?

No it doesn't - my bad :oops:.

I've just landed a True-flite barrel for $NZ673 ($A550) so add say A$250 for fitting, and that's $4300 total.

Regarding the price of the stock alone, I think its quite competitive for what you get.
