years ago i bought a ruger #3 but it came with #1 wood (boyds stock). i would like to turn it back into #3 carbine. where can i get original wood, barrel band and buttplate? any help would be appreciated.

Maybe start with the manufacturer?

Numerich gun parts you might get lucky

slamfire-- the #3 hasn't been made since the eighties so ruger will be a nogo.
jonny45-- i thought numerich doesn't ship to canada but i will check.

Confirmed with Ruger? I can still get parts for my old F-150 pickup from Ford no problem.

Western Gun Parts is a good source. Not sure about the stock??

Numerich ships to Canada.

Number 3 wood is hard to find as the last .375 was manufactured in 1984.

Ruger has also cleared out parts for models they no longer produce.

Place a WTB add on EE keep looking and asking at Gun Shows, Gun Shops etc:

thanks everyone. numeric only has the metal not the wood. the wood will be the issue.
