Browning Hi-Power shoulder stock

[bucnball]

Just put an Inglis Hi-Pwer on layaway.. It's slotted for a stock. (1) Is it legal to attach a stock ? (2) Anyone know what a re-pro stock should cost ? I tried GB but no luck. The pistol has been buffed and blued so collector value is virtually null. Thanks !

Original stock on an original pistol yes.  Reproduction ANYTHING....no.  Got into that when I played with broom handles.  The serial numbers need not match but it must be an original buttstock to that era.   Seems kinda grey but that's typical ATF.  Also the Hi power can't be any late model or modified deal either.  

 

I'm sure there's a serial number cut off date somewhere.

I have an Inglis Highpower with correct shoulderstock. There are specific serial number ranges in the ATF book that delineate what is allowed with out being an sbr and what makes an sbr. I have the proper page xeroxed and in the stock that pertains to my pistol. As to original and repro stocks you will have to check the book. Direct copies of the original stocks are often allowed on curio and relic guns. All this info is dated several years ago when I got the gun so you will need to see the up to date regulations.

 

When I can set the money aside from buying parts to build other peoples guns I plan to get a repro Artillery stock and trammel mag holder for my Luger.

 

BTW the Stocked HP was my entry gun in another lifetime :cool:

 

Cheers,
