The Grade 3 selected walnut handguard and stock – a qualitative leap from the Grade 2.5 wooden stock and handguard found on the Silver Pigeon III model – feature a lustrous gloss finish that highlights the precious wood grain while protecting the components from water and humidity, making them both elegant in all conditions and extremely sturdy for the hardest hunting days.

 

Both the handguard and the stock are finely checkered on all contact surfaces for a firm grip in all conditions. The stock is available in right-handed and left-handed versions, with either a 35/55 or 38/60 drop, and optionally with a B-FAST height-adjustable cheek riser for clay shooting competitions.
