Hi 187coyote,
The only drawbck to cloth is it gives, useing gloves on cloth may not give the proper feel or may slip while sighting in. If it gets damp it'll get baggy too. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
Sewings not hard, and we wouldn't be making anothing to wear in public. HAHAHa. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
This must be done in the living room. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif Have the cloth layed wide open, Camo facing down, inside facing out. Take the rifle, lay it on the cloth at one end. draw a outline of that side, Barrel and Stock, roll the rifle where it is laying upside down on the cloth, draw another outline with the rifle in this possition. Roll it over to the next side, draw another outline of it. Roll it on it's bottom and make another outline. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
You just made your first pattern, cut around the full outline you drew, DO Not cut between the outlines. turn the cloth over and now pass neddle and thread through it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
If the wife's not in there helping by now go get her and sound how proud you are of what you did. When she looks at it if it's really messed up she may take pitty on you and help fix it. This is why it was done in the living room.
Don't ask for any help, but when she offers, Haa Haa. You got her. Why not, they do it to us all the time. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
Let me know how it turns out if you go to the trouble. Or take the stock to the nearest Bass Pro Shop and see what fits. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
Mine's open at the bottom for the magazine which mine doesn't have but the sides are camoed.
Good Hunting and God Bless. Happy Safe 4th.
