Default GM54-120 TH dipped
I found Palmetto Hydrographics in the classifieds on here and decided to give them a try with the TH Extreme stock for my Green Mountain 54-120 Brush Gun. I ditched the Weaver bases and Durasite QR rings for a set of Leupold rings and bases. The high rings give just enough clearance between the bell and barrel.

Looks mighty nice Omega. Like a serious long range shooter.

SuperKirby,
Not many of the GM54-120's made it into peoples hands before Knight got new owners and Green Mountain was forced to stop sales. Here is a few good reads on the gun. Make sure you read the price on the bottom of the second article. Hard to believe!!
