With the failure of the brand spanking new Manners stock the young fella asked if I could help him out with a stock that wouldn't shit itself with the Edge.
A bit of a deal was struck with our Ned Kelly and a Wild Dog SA-TA2 followed me home.
The only problem was it's a Rem Short action and the Edge wouldn't quite fit. A bit of a run in the mill soon had the bottom metal sorted and the topside got a bit of carbon fibre reinforced devcon to fill in the old recoil lug slot which is where the front pillar will now live.
