Shotgun Stock Identification Help

[DrewB]

Hello. I started this thread in the rifle forum thinking that is what I had. I was wrong. This stock is heavy in weight and rather large. It has a small hump (looks factory) on the top near the butt plate end. It measures 16 3/4" across the top and 17 1/2" across the bottom.

I attached some photos. Hopefully one of you pro's will know who made this and for what type of shotgun.

Thanks to everyone for your help

A few in the rifle forum believed this was for some sort of O/U, if that helps.

Is there anything on the pistol grip cap? It does look like an O/U type stock for a target gun and pretty walnut, but so many are very similar it would be hard to tell without any markings. The pistol grip usually has some type of emblem, unless totally custom.

Typical boxlock cut with a shallow upper latch notch, pronounced cheekpad... Miroku 150? Beretta Silver Hawk? Browning BSS? Briley?

It's very difficult to tell. I wouldn't even rule out a double rifle (or a DR conversion from a shotgun) because of the very high cheek rest. On a shotgun that may be a bit awkward, but not on a scoped rifle.

Looks like a trap shotgun stock to me.

No logos or markings on the grip. I attached one more photo showing it. This stock is a doozy

Which might make sense since I did find some skeet/competition type barrels in his shop.

If not a trap stock it could be a custom ladies stock.
