Abstract

This gun stock consists primarily of a comb, which is adjustable in height within opening means of the stock, so as to enable the shooter to have his or her gun custom fitted to his or her requirements for clay bird shooting or target shooting. The comb is elevatable upon a pair of dowels of the stock, and a knurled wheel in the stock, upon a threaded bolt, enables the user to raise or lower the comb, and the structure may be made to accommodate a left hand shooter, as well as a right hand shooter.
