Wanting to get my daughter started hunting next season with me so we are customizing one of my rifles to her taste and size. Thanks to PhillCavender for giving me the donor stock for this project! I filled the stock with spray foam and then cut the stock down to 11.75" LOP. I had to shape and epoxy a piece of wood in to attach the recoil pad to also had to grind pad to new stock size. We then painted (my 7yo daughter's choice of colors) and matte clear coated the stock. She loves the way it turned out, now to work on honing those shooting skills.

Thanks for all of the kind comments. It was a fun project and she helped with the rubber band stenciling and painting. Those little girls sure know how to wrap Dad around their finger....

This rifle usually wears a Houge Over-mold stock I bought from Mr Clean several years back. It is a tack driver.
