It's a Cerus with some carbon fibre laminate

I would like a butt stock like on a F open rifle but the beaver tail type long forarm as it would be a Fstd of a bipod rifle. In a nice wood the lamination's like the Cerus seem to be a good compromise of classic look but still with the strength of a laminate.

I have access to Cerus stocks but a Cerus finished with basic timber and hardware would work out around 3 grand, if you want exotic timber, and adjustable LOP etc, it goes up from there.
If anyone is interested please contact me, I need an minimum order of 4 stocks to make it viable.

Azzo will look after you, the Centretrac stocks are gaining traction quickly. The Cerus is beautiful but a nightmare to get - speaking from first hand experience on this one.

I think Mark (from Centretrac) is in Sth Africa at the World's ATM. Be patient and when he gets back I'm sure you will get replies.

Someone posted this pic of the F-Open team a few days ago and I spotted him smiling in the front row!

[font=Georgia]Yea, and even then you will not get a reply.... Maybe if you fronted up to CERUS's front door {call ahead to see if he is in a good mood and will condescend to see you...}
He is notoriously difficult to get in touch with and get an order started as well as you are looking at a Minium of one year delivery times...
By the Way!
Since a stock is a "Fire Arm" part it falls under USA ITAR regulations and will cost you $250US to file the paperwork for export + your agent's fee {I recommend Rob at "We Export Guns" in Phoenix}[/font]

[font=Georgia]Yea, Me Too! I had the same problem with CERUS
In the end I settled for a McMillan ZR which is what CERUS copied... not as pretty as a CERUS but at least available and terrific folks to deal with...[/font]

There's a few differences, the Cerus is shorter and lighter and I have to say also tracks better, but the Kestros ZR is an excellent stock in it's own right and it's hard to be disappointed in any of the top stock manufacturers these days, they all make fantastic stocks.
