Hey guys, I'm thinking about picking up a model 11 scout. I just have a few questions about it. I'm new to savage, and bolt guns in general, so please bear with my stupidity :p
Will any short action model 11 detachable magazine stock fit the scout? The particular gun i'm looking at has a FDE stock, and i'd MUCH prefer a black or OD stock. I'm not having much luck finding factory accustocks - are they available anywhere?
Next question - is it possible to add a conventional rail to the scout, such that a normal short eye relief scope will work on it? I know this defeats the purpose of a scout rifle, but it would just be temporary - until I find a long eye relief scope that suits me.
Thanks for the help guys. I am hoping to pick up the rifle in the next week or so, and am beyond excited!
