Very difficult to find. Shoei were not interested in selling one to me a while back, and all parts (even repro) are tremendously expensive.

Good luck!

I found mine on ebay.com although it actually came from Germany and as Steiner says it don't come cheap, mine cost about £225, I'm sure I've seen site in the US which will supply these but they want the same sort of price for them $400 to $500 in some cases more, I'll see if I can find the link tonight when I go home.

With the repro front band, trigger guard and butt plate I'm upto about £400 and I'm starting to think it would have been better to get a Shoei model gun and converted that.

i thought as much...
there is one on ebay but the guy in the u.s wont ship to the u.k :(
i did think of shoei but could not justify the £1000+ just to tear it down.

pete..where did you get your repro bits from, and if you could get that link mate that would be great.

All my repro bits came from different auctions on ebay.com so that won't be a lot of help to you.

I've got a feeling that there has been a change in the US law relating to exporting automatic weapon parts which is why it's getting more difficult to find anyone willing to ship them, it doesn't help that ebay are getting worse about what gun parts can and cant be sold and who can buy them :evil:

I'll post any links I've got but if you've got any woodworking skills it might be better to have a go at making a stock yourself, there are a number of advantages to doing it that way, if you make it in two halves it's a lot easier to carve out where the mechanism and battery needs to go plus you can 'stretch' the dimensions in areas where a real stock may not be big enough to allow the mechanism to fit. If you decide to have a go I'm happy to supply you with pictures and dimensions from my stock.
