Using new, modern cut, custom built, mahogany furniture that is sealed inside and outside, a solid piece of wood, no knots, no cute grains swirling around.This is the only way to attach a hunting stock on this rolling block and not wood screws. A old 1800's straight tang trigger guard that matches the receiver will work with a bolt connecting them through the stock, sourcing one would be a challenge.A new modern 12" long stock and forend will be sourced, the RB1 trigger guard is out. I've heard that the stock quality is questionable. The way that the stock made and how it's attached to the receiver and trigger guard with a bent tang would eventually become loose and become unstable for long term use in hunting.
The RB1 furniture looks nice, however it is inadequate also. A stripped receiver is going to be sourced for the build. The RB1 receiver is set up for the RB1 barrel, and with little modification, it will be accommodating the 100 year old parts needed to function. I'm sourcing the barrel for the rifle build. The RB1 barrel looks promising, it's 30"+ long, and it's heavy, really heavy to accommodate the 45-70 high pressure round, if the rounds being used are factory made this barrel will be the best thing hands down with no issues. A fixed long range scope is the only way to go, one shot one kill. The RB1 "peep" iron sights are definitely not going to work, very impractical, they may h ave worked 100 years ago, however we are past all that, it's now a modern world of hunting.
