Hey every one
How easy is it to dremel the hand grip on the choate stock? Has any one done it? I like the feel of the stock except the grip it's big. Seems like i would be able to dremel a contoured grip.
Thanks
Rich

The material is easy to work with. I removed some material from the tang area (to free float the tang) with a file and sand paper without problems. But note the grip is hollow so there's a limit as far as how much material you can remove there.

It is fairly thick plastic, should be easy to thin out. I can see where it would bother some people, I have large hands and it doesnt bother me. Careful not to take too much off, the handle is hollow! Mine is full of lead :o

I sanded my whole stock lightly with a coarse sandpaper to 'matte' the finish. I like it better like that.
