Recently I contacted Jerry to see if he would be willing to attempt to reproduce the (rare) leather boot cover for the mag. extension on an Astra M.902 Broomhandle shoulder stock. At the tme, I only had a couple of pictures of what I was looking for to share with Jerry, and nothing else to go on.

Jerry immediately agreed to tackle the project, and in the course of my research to provide more reference material to Jerry, fellow forum member PJ Heck jumped in to offer his original M. 902 boot to serve as a pattern for an accurate reprodiction(!) Now mind you, I have never met either of these guys in person, and only had email conversations with them--

With PJ's original boot as a pattern, and my shoulder stock in-hand, Jerry created a copy that looked and fit perfectly.

I owe a dept of gratitude to both Jerry and PJ for their generousity and spirit and I thank them both! This forum really has some fine members.
