I looked hard about a year ago. The only place I could find one was from TC themselves. If I recall, the cost so high I thought I'd could buy a entire rifle for about the same.

I didn't look at Boyds or any other custom shop.

I looked pretty hard too without luck. Even contacted a few of the major aftermarket sources, asking if they ever had, or would ever consider producing an Omega stock. Still no luck. But don't let that stop you. Maybe if enough people contact the producers, they might consider making a limited run.

With the number of Omegas out there, cannot understand why no one would do this. I doubt it's fear of patent infringement.

what does everybody think about thumbholes stocks. i have never owned one. it looks ok, only laminate stock for this available so... i just have never used one

I swore i'd never get one. I just bought one, and even though I think it's butt ugly. It's the most comfortable stock i've ever owned.

I at one time never thought I would hunt with a thumbhole stock... in fact I was adamant about it...

Then I bought a TH for my Omega - that changed every thing and it did not take long to get use to it at all. I am totally comfortable with it now off the bench or hunting...
