Newly manufactured Lee furniture

[Falcorn]

Looks like somebody in Canada started manufacturing Lee En furniture - Marstar has one in inventory - brand new wood, no metal. Although it says Mk4 but I don't believe them.

I can't remember the guys name up in the Yukon that made a run of No1 furniture a year or so ago, maybe he did more?

That's no.1 furniture.

That's no.1 furniture.

Sure is! I would like to see a side by side comparison with an original stock to see how they look. I have seen reproduction stocks before that are way to thin.

EFD used to make excellent wood for LE rifles - not sure if they're still a thing

They labeled it wrong, are they still in business?

EFD is out of business - last time I emailed them about stocks I was informed one of the founders had passed away and the company was folded up shortly thereafter.

Other than "arealgunnut" in the Yukon, with some occasional inventory, I have no idea who'd be making reproduction stock sets.

I did get a reply from the fellows in Saskatchewan (can't remember the company name at the moment) who do restorations, they have reproduction stock sets available for $375 a piece. Pricey stuff...

$375 is a good deal if you are getting the whole set. i make and sell just the upper hand guards and get $130 a set.
the guy in Sask is Stuart Hardcastle, PM me for his contact info if you want it.

I highly doubt you can make that in Canada for $375. a set.

 

[infideleggwelder]

if i was making the whole set, it would be closer to$500 or more..

From the picture, I can already see the need to screw in a reinforcing pin at the back of the forend

Would that be M+S stocking?

A fellow I know has Mk III sets made in Windsor Canada via CNC machine. Milling I assume. They need a lot of final work when bought. Some have incorrect radius at handguards. Other mods. are required too. I bought and used one set in maple, but walnut is available.
They are very good for a shooter, who has some basic wood skills to complete. But not for the serious collector.
