My 1972
Daisy Model 1000 has a short butt stock like the Model 95. I was
wondering if someone might have
a long stock like fits on the 88, 99 or 299? I know I will need to drill the trigger spring slot. I would prefer one with
the older darker finish and no embedded emblem on the side. But I will
take what I can get. There's a very clean Model 99 stock on J.G., but
it would be around $40 with shipping.  |

My thoughts tell me that $40 including shipping might not be a bad price. But just for grins and giggles, here's a little option I've been kicking around but haven't tried yet. As we all know the wide frame guns are much wider than the Red Ryder ilk. So, take a Red Ryder stock, pad out the front 3 or 4 inches on each side where the mounting screws go, refinish to taste and use a curved cocking lever. Too unorthodox you say? Well.....  ------------- Air-It-Is |

I have a stock off a 88 or a 99 I am not sure. It’s finish is dark but peeling so it would need a refinish. It measures 11 1/2 inches from the rear side mounting screw to the stock butt. There is not a trigger screw hole either. It does have a screw hole for a sling mount. It is in my parts drawer so $5 plus shipping and can be yours.

I do not have a PayPal account anymore. I will see what kind of a box I can get it in tomorrow. Maybe a flat rate box I will just let you know in the next day or two. We have been at the hospital all day today with a brother in law. Should be able to do some things tomorrow. I will need an address to send it to.

I got the longer stock today from Rick Cates. It's just what I needed.  As Rick described, this is an early Model 99 stock without the hole drilled for the trigger spring.  Drilling one was no big deal. Using the short stock from the Model 1000 as an example, the hole is perpendicular to the front end of the stock.  I measured the diameter as 15/64" and the depth as 3/8". The place where the hole goes was tapered on the Model 99 stock, so I moved it up about 3/16" so the lower side would be thick enough. And it works great when test-firing on the Model 1000.  Thanks again to Rick for this vintage longer butt stock. I will be refinishing it soon and will do a more thorough description of the Model 1000 rebuild in its on thread. |
