mod. 12 Blind CF Magazine

[oop257r]

I have a Mod. 12 action CF and a mcgowen barrel I bought from Northlander . I am trying to install the blind magazine in this thing. Not much luck. The stock is a Richards blind mag . Could use some help please.

Thanks ,
Opp

What's the problem? Don't have a clue what troubles your having other than problems with a blind magazine, stock and Model 12.

Problem solved. Talked to Mr. Briggs and he figured out that the Richards stock was not cut right for the CF magazine. They cut the thing for a stagger feed mag. , the stagger feed cut out is so much larger than the CF, it just flops around in the stock. The wood is really nice but just cut wrong from what I ordered. Ordered a synthetic stock from Jim to get the right size mag. opening. Will fill the thing up and re-cut it to the right size.Going to call Richards folks to see what can they might do about this, might get lucky and get the stock replaced.
Thanks for all the help.

Richards stock was not cut right for the CF magazine

Why am I not surprised? Hope you can get them to make it right.
