For those who didn't know John Durkin, he was one of winchesters in house custom shop employees who began his career at winchester in 1949. Trapperg you have a private pm.

Good thread! Packman 13 had a M-12 up until recently that had Durkin wood. My understanding is that Packman(Gary) purchased the wood from one of the Ulrichs. Maybe Gary could offer a comparable price??? Pauline Muerrle knew John Durkin and she has authenticated Durkin wood in the past. She has a website and is very knowledgable. Maybe she can help. Interestingly enough, I have a set of small guage Durkin wood. Kit

I have had this miss matched factory wood for years now looking for the other matching stock and forearm. These are Factory but I am considering the non factory replacements at this point. The colors are very different making it more difficult who are the replacement stock makers any leads for me ?Buddy
