$ or time. And some folks, like me, don’t care about aesthetic anyway. Given there’s no functional improvement, it’s just not worth it to me.
But it does look 100% better.
Haha relax man, I didn’t insult your mom.
The adapters are 100% fine and are cost-effective.
Yours looks better for sure, even with the “cheap little” thread-on shoulder 😉
100%. I have some of my grandpa’s old rifles not because they’re nice guns (he was poor) or good condition (they’re marked to hell), but because I imagine what it would’ve been like to hunt with him in the Virginia boonies.
I don’t mean this to sound pretentious. But factory Tikkas aren’t really heirloom quality firearms worthy of passing down.
Make it what you want it (including cut/thread), hunt it hard, and pass it down to your kids full of memories with the marks to prove it.
They’ll appreciate that more than...
New/unused tikka d18 stock. Asking $110 shipped TYD in CONUS.
PayPal F&F only. I have lots of feedback here.
Would prefer buyer be comfortable waiting for a week or so until my next stock comes in, so I can reuse its box lol
