I’d like to see the end result as well, am intrigued how it looks in the end.
Mine arrived this morning, looks nice!
It's always a bit of a gamble buying wood stocks unseen because the grain patterns will vary. This stock has a couple of very small hints of knots,but all an all I'm stocked on the wood quality!
I'm going to use it with a Grey Birch I picked up when they were leaving Canada heading down to Florida, the Grey Birch has a barrel nut and I will need to remove a bit of wood there to get it to seat properly. Looks like I will also need to open up the width of cutout for the trigger to accommodate the safety button when dropping it in to the stock.... it's a hair to tight as is.
Other then that it looks nice, pretty close copy to the Hogue stock in dimensions with a slight difference in the palm contour at the back of the pistol grip. The Hogue's palm cutout is a bit longer but other then that and the basket weave laser checkering they are the same. The butt pad is a nice medium hard rubber and the stock is pre-drilled for screw in slingstuds.

Well,
I don’t own one but Dlask shipped me one by mistake
I ordered Hogue Thumbhole stock they shipped me Turkish Wooden stock. It was nice and very well built. The butt pad feels very good. However I did not install it, just exchanged for correct order.
You should happy with that stock
Sad to hear many negative reviews recently with Dlask however they did mess up my very first order and I had to wait few weeks after holiday season to have mine exchanged. They charged me twice shipping cost ( mostly my fault since I ordered two different things in two separate orders but they shipped both in 1 shipment, I had a small wish during Christmas time that they would consider ship me a recoil buffer pin if they ship both orders in 1 parcel so they don’t need to return my shipping cost for 2nd order but they did not)
Just got another order delivered today from them for charging handle kit + recoil buffer pin. Might order few other things before they completely close down the shop

I really like the "observation tower". as displayed on the upper rifle. Looks good .Mine arrived this morning, looks nice!

Looks like a FLAK gun in some sense...
It's a 3X prism, not a bad optic but the eye relief is short so it needs to be cantilevered to the rear.
Primary Arms came out with a newer generation 1X that has longer eye relief but as far as I know they have not brought out a 3x with longer eye relief so far... all they really need to do is put one more mount option in their kit that extends straight back with minimal rise.
Well that and include some flip up cap options.....
This Grey Birch has a glock style Modular Optic System cutout and came with some adapters for different pistol red dots to mount directly.
It's currently got a M.O.S compatable picatinny rail section bolted on so I can run optics with picatinny clamps.

I’ve been eyeing these stocks for weeks. In the cart, out the cart - you know the game. Yours is the first firsthand feedback I’ve seen. Thanks for the review!
How is the receiver inlet? Much noticeable wiggle left/right/front/back once receiver is dropped in?
Barrel aligns with centre of barrel inlet?
That grey birch is a smart looking lil gun
The Grey Birch receiver fits very tight, as I said I need to remove a bit of wood to make room for the barrel nut and a the area that the safety button passes through needs a bit if relief as it won't pass through right now.

Looking at the stock's barrel channel, where the channel comes to a flat before dropping around the outer part of the foreend there is a bit more material on the right side then the left, it's not perfectly balanced but it's close. I won't know for sure how the barrel sits until I carve out the small amount of wood that is interfering with the barrel nut dropping all the way into place, but it looks like the barrel might be a half a hair off towards the side of the channel that has a little extra meat on it.... If it drops in a hair to that side it will be easy to sand the channel a bit untill there is even clearance and it will likely even out the slight imbalance that the channel came with.
The only other thing I noticed is that the hole for the receiver screw seems to be well aligned with the hole in the Grey Birch's receiver which was not the case with the Hogue stock. I had to dremel the plastic hogue stock's hole a bit to allow the bolt to pass straight into the receiver.... Iwas a bit worried I might have to do the same with this stock but when I tried it out testing the fit it seems to be better aligned then the Hogue was and seems good to go.
I'll update when I get it fully seated some time in the near future.....
It's always possible to get a wood stock that's warped or twisted a bit , but his sample of one looks very nice. The wood seems like good quality and is quite aromatic! The laser engraved basket weave is well done, strong, clean and effective and the machining inside is also crisp and clean.
I'm very happy and if they are all similar to mine, I'd say it's a no brainer if you want a nice walnut stock and have a heavy barrel. I ordered a few more 10/22 parts to soften the shipping a bit, but the shipping was pretty good as I'm not too far away.
I think for anyone that's done some stock bedding or is handy around the house fixing things, an epoxy bedding of the channel to fit a standard profile barrel would not be that hard. If you don't care about the extra free float you could just run it as is with a thinner barrel.
If your real fussy you could even tint the epoxy to blend with the colour of the walnut.... or buy a thicker barrel!

Well finally got around to it last night... took a bit longer then anticipated but I like to go slow when removing material to inlet a stock. The barrel channel is parallel with the barrel but as I suspected it could use a bit of sanding along the right side to even it out.... it's not touching but it's close for sure. It looks like it will match the left side nicely once it's sanded out a bit!
When I ordered the stock I also bought a Dlask extended mag release and auto bolt release which went in without a hitch.
It's tempting to order another stock for a spare......

Here she is with one of Osight's newer RMSc fully enlosed red dot's. Perfect match for this compact and lightweight rifle.
While I like the rechargeable units Osight makes, this model takes user replaceable CR1620 batteries and given the runtime is measured in years with it's auto off and shake awake I prefer these for serviceability down the road and they are bit cheaper as well.
The charging cover that they use on the rechargeable models is not the best design, The battery life is long enough that it doesn't make sense to have another battery in a bulky plastic cover. I have no idea if the red dot's battery will last as long as they say, but one strange thing I noticed was when you put the fully charged charging cover on fully charged red dot in storage.... the battery in the charging cover seems to self discharge which makes it useless if the idea is to use it to top up the red dot 6 months or a year down the road?
Osight, if your out there. Come up with a tight fitting rubber cover for the units with some flip up caps incorporated for nasty weather!
Otherwise these sights look great to my astigmatic eyes and are well priced with a lifetime warranty.
This model of GreyBirch has a MOS Glock type cut in it and it came with plates to adapt it to the other popular footprints for pistol dots.
As I mentioned previously, I sourced an MOS-Picatinny rail and it works well for swapping optics from other guns.
The Osight could be mounted almost a half inch lower with the picatinny adapter removed but the height actually feels good for my neck with a med height cheek weld.
4lbs 3oz with an empty 10 round magazine and no sling studs according to a cheap plastic scale..... the walnut stock is lighter in the hand then the Hogue that was on there previously.
Turkish-De-Lite! Oh and did I mention it smells nice.....

That looks good, I like it !
She looks good, feels good and smells good..... I've mostly only used the gun so far straight pull shooting Quiets, if she runs and shoots most standard ammo nicely when she's hot and dirty she will be the whole package!
I'm glad I saw this thread about these stocks!

Mine arrived today fit seems excellent might have to sand a tiny bit for the safety it was a tight squeeze. Very happy with the finish especially for the price. Only thing I noticed was the stud holes were about 2mm to one side and probably 1/2 mm more gap on one side of the barrel. Oh and shipping was fast went out next business day

Mine should be coming in the next day or so, so I was happy to see this thread.
I was going to order a Boyds, but this is far cheaper, and will do what I want it to - I just want a can blaster for the range. I'm doing something very similar to Can-down - 12" barrel and a red dot
I'm trying the Spectre top charging receiver, mostly so that I can run a brass catcher (just about everyone is recycling brass here now...)
I also ordered a TUFF-22 receiver, just to have one, since I also heard that Dlask is winding down. I built a target rifle with the TUFF several years back.

I put my rifle together using a Spectre ST-22 receiver and ran into a slight problem where the bolt was binding when the rifle was in the stock.
I took some 100 grit and gently sanded the receiver pocket until the gun went together easily and the bolt cycled without binding.
Since I now had bare wood inside I took some of the trade secret stock oil that a dear gunsmith friend had given me, and rubbed a bit into it.
Then I tried a bit in the barrel channel, liked the result and ended up oiling the entire stock. The finish it comes with is ok, but seems a bit "thin"
And the wood is stained too, btw - I sanded through that finish inside.
Anyway, this is my rifle Prior to oiling the stock (it's currently drying)
