Fixitman Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Can anyone tell me, for a fact, what the SS stock is made of? I have heard several stories. That it is painted onto the syn. stock. That it is painted onto a wood stock. (don't really believe that one) That it is applied similar to the camo finishes. That it is actually a very thin layer of real carbon fiber laminated to a syn. stock. I have called Benelli CS and asked. They say it is "Carbon Fiber". I can't get anything more specific than that. Whether they don't have the knowledge to share or what, I'm not convinced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudhen Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Nelli Girl works for Benelli - I'm presuming she would know. The Franchi Raptor comes in green CF and it scratches off if you really want it to. The DuraTouch from Win/Browning is also a dipped decal of sorts and scratches if you want it to. mudhen - CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Ramsey Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Originally posted by bwana1: How can they say its carbon fiber if it not?????????????? That's what I said. I was about to order one as a replacement part for my 712 Raptor, untill I found out it was just a synth stock with a dip job. Pretty cheese dick manuver on Benelli's & Franchi's part. Hey Nelli Girl, tell them that if they make a real one we will buy it. The voice said: "If you build it, they will come."
