Custom Gun Stocks
A custom gun stock is made to fit you, your rifle, and the way you shoot — built from the ground up to suit your body dimensions and discipline, whether you’re shooting targets, competing, or out in the field.
I work with carefully selected hardwoods or laminates, focusing on proper fit, balance, and control rather than unnecessary styling. The aim is a stock that shoulders naturally, tracks consistently, and stands up to long-term use. I build stocks for modern PCP air rifles such as Air Arms and Steyr, traditional Weihrauch springers like the HW30, HW77 and HW97, and smallbore platforms — as one of very few custom rifle stock makers left in the UK.
If you’re looking for a gun stock that fits properly and performs as it should, a bespoke Daviesbuilt stock is built to do exactly that. Enquire to discuss your build.

Build spotlight — Titan Mohawk
As a personal favourite, I always take on work for custom stocks on Single-Stroke Pneumatic (SSP) air rifles and pistols wherever I can — partly out of passion, but also because these actions pose different structural challenges that other makers may not accommodate. This Titan Mohawk in Zebrano is one I’ll remember for a long time; the striking timber looked amazing once completed.
Using a hand-selected piece of Zebrano, the bland factory beech sporting stock was replaced with a thumbhole design built to the owner’s measurements, taking inspiration from the rare factory thumbhole Mohawks. The challenge was bringing the geometry and handling up to date while still looking at home on the classic action. It was finished with a high-quality Anschütz adjustable butt pad and hand-cut chequering to the grip and fore end.

Custom Gun Stocks testimonials
Built for fit, finish, and performance.
I was looking for a Steyr half stock with matching fore end/hamster and used Tom after seeing his other work. I wanted a special thumb on the side and Tom did an excellent job of interpreting what I was looking for but in his style.
Tom made me a fantastic stock for my HW30, I’m over the moon with the results. From the get go Tom listened to what I was looking for, we traded a few messages, images and ideas before I dropped off my action and he went to work. I got regular updates and asked what I thought before things got too far down one path. Couldn’t be happier — Tom made my perfect HW30 stock.
For a long time I’ve sought a special stock for arguably my favourite rifle, my Steyr Hunting 5A, and Tom makes beautiful contemporary bespoke stocks. The finished article is sublime, and exactly what I wanted, a modern take on the factory stock. Tom has knocked it out of the park, truly. I can’t praise it highly enough, thank you!
