Default stock swapping?

what exactly keeps the excal's thumbhole stock from interchanging with the regular one?

I dont mind the regular stock but I think I'd maybe like a thumbhole better, but it would have to fit my phoenix, awshucks sent me a link a while back that had some awesome custom made thumbhole stocksfor sale and thats probably the route I'm going to take regaurdless(if they're still even available),but I'm still curious as to what exactly keeps the excal stocksfrom intercanging

no the thumbhole stocks will not interchange. i never had one to try but several have tried it and they're too narrow i think is what was said.

ask Digger he knows as much or more than i do about excals, lol i get alot of my info and learning from him. oh yes he is sharp as a tack on alot of CB stuff!

Smoke is correct. The trigger location, front to rear, is also different. I personally like the feel of the regular stock the best and the trigger feel seems better. Not bashing Excal, but they could have done a better job on the thumbhole/trigger design by keeping the regular trigger geometry.

Opinions about the thumbhole stock are like belly buttons....most everyone has one. And I happen to really like mine (TH stock that is).

That can be said about every topic posted on this site except high prices I think. But I do value mine more than I do yours
