Hi all. A friend of mine was able to get an old, WW2 era Mosin Nagant M91/30 wood stock for me. So i cannibalized my scratchbuilt DeLisle carbine for the last of my Bar10 parts. Like with my K98 and SMLE builds, I carved the stock out to fit the Bar10 receiver, trigger mech, part of the outer barrel, and magazine. But because the stock was so slim, i had to modify the bar10 hop block so that i wouldn't have to carve away too much wood. Also, there was no more space for the sliding hop up adjustment arm, so i just took it out and modified the hop to be adjusted via allen screw from the top. I was able to get a china replica PU scope and mount from ehobbyasia...which cost more than the rifle itself...but it was the cheapest PU in the market. The scope mount rail is mounted on the receiver.
hop is adjusted from the top via allen wrench. unfortunately, rear sight is fixed to accommodate the hop adjust.
very nice custom work
Well done
Having done a Kar 98 I know how much work is involved great job
Very nice work! My Nagant stock has just arrived this morning so I'll be using these pics as a great source of reference. May I ask where did you get the bolt from and how did you attach it to the Bar10?
Nice job

Thanks!
The bolt is from an extra dboys kar98. I had a harder time with this than my kar98 conversion. I had to take a lot of wood and metal out, especially from the hop adjust block. There is a LOT of unnecessary metal that you can take out of it to conserve wood. Also, my build was complicated by the face that the stock was actually in three pieces that i had to secure with several metal rods.
