I would stick with the heat gun and smaller area heated myself.

Alittle heat and penetrating oil works well, as a silversmith and welder, I would avoid using a torch unless you are very qualified with it.

I believe i got my shortened synthetic stock for my SBE1 from : http://www.lockstock.com (800-228-7925). I first contacted Bell and Carlson and they refered me to them. Good luck

I guess I should have been more specific and mentioned it was on the Outdoor channel on Satellite TV, sorry.

Just saw on the Guns and Ammo show 11-24-07 a torture test that involved dropping a 20 gauge shell down the throat of a M4 then shooting both slug then buckshot round through it. No apparent ill effects to the M4. I figured it would blow the barrel, suprised the testers as well. The 20 ga. shell went off and they recovered the first one at least.

I agree with the full power loads, but IMHO the term "home defense" is a very broad. I consider it to mean that I am in my house, and someone has entered illeagally and intends to cause me or my family harm. In that case my choke of choice is cylinder bore with a shot size of BB or larger. Due to the close distance (less than 20') the pattern still won't be very large and the shot will be incapacitating. Personally I load 1st round in chamber is OO buck, then a slug, then finish out with OO.

I contacted Bell & Carson in Dodge , who then referred me to a dealer of their stuff in Nebraska, bought a 1 1/2 shorter black synthetic stock for my SBE 1 on the way for $188. from the factory cost was almost $100 more.

Thanks for the info , I am going to contact them in the morning. There are several interesting things in their lineup.

Do they have a web site or do you have a phone # for them?

after running several different shot sizes(7 1/2, 4,5,2,F and T) all of the same make and powder charge (per shot size) through my SBE1 over a chrono, I recorded a drop of 350-500 fps drop in velocity with 3 1/2 in. over 3 in. The 3 1/2 's have more shot with the same powder charge= greater recoil. Using patterning test targets and changing chokes made a greater difference on hits/shell than anything else I've tried. Having no way to test shot string length other than visual observation of the stream , it seems that the 3 1/2 is slightly longer. I stick with the 3 in. (more velocity= better penetration/knockdown)

Is there anyone that makes a shorter length of pull synthetic stock for a SBE I?
