Silly question maybe... I've noticed the replica Win 1876's all have straight grips and crescent buttplates.  I wonder if there is anyone who knows of an aftermarket or accessory outfit that offers pistol grip buttstocks and perhaps shotgun butts or enough wood to permit to be fashioned.

The wood might be available from "Precision" stock company. Crapparal touts the parts are interchangeable with the original Winchester. The tang on your rifle will have to be bent and dont expect the wood to necessarily fit as wll as modification of the lever. This is not an easy job. Used Winchester metal parts could probably be adapted but 1876 production was very small and those parts would bring a premium.

Try Doug Turnbull if ya wanna spend some moola!

Sorry to rain on yer parade, Happy New Year!
