I know boyds says that the stock has a cheek rest in the stock, but I haven't really been able to get a good photo that represents exactly how much of a rest there is. I am interested in a Karsten Cheek Rest/Riser but don't wanna fork out the $75 and find out it won't work on the stock. Has anyone tried to put a Karsten on their stock, have a good photo of the butt portion of the boyds stocks and/or have the Karsten mounted?

Thanks for your help!!
Rick! :D

It has a Monte Carlo comb. Look at Boyd's Gallery of Designs for picture.

I have looked through their galleries but I can't seem to get a good angle of what I'm looking for. If it is only Monte Carlo... shouldn't be a problem. But if it protrudes horizontally like the Featherweight Thumbhole... might make my plans difficult lol

Thanks for your input.. I see if any new photos popped up!

I think it will be a challenge.
It does have the cheek rest.

You guys are simply awesome! haha That is exactly what kind of photos I was looking for!
Too bad it can't accept a Karsten without some serious sanding and wood working. I will most likely still get this but the Tacticool is looking better and better now

the classic is almost the same as the prairie hunter without the monte carlo style on the back end and it should be able to accept a Karsten. I put one on my Axis ProHunter stock prior to getting the ProTac.

Okay, so the Classic DOES NOT have the cheekrest??

If anyone has photos to compare and confirm, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks, Lone Wolf!
