Howa SA Tactical Stock by Choate

My stock was shipped with excess Stock Molding Material in and on the aluminum bedding block area. Instead of just dropping my barreled action into the stock, I spent over an hour removing the excess Polymer. The excess was mechanically preventing me from installing my barreled action to check for a proper fit. I've never had to do this with an aftermarket stock prior to this order. My stock incurred scratches on my aluminum bedding block while being forced to remove the excess material. Tactical Works Inc need to perform more thorough inspections of products before they ship items. I had no issues with any of the other parts on the order. I provided before and after pictures and they
were not willing to do anything in my behalf since I removed the excess polymer myself. I was given a 3rd party email to contact 07/22/2020 and I still haven't heard from them. Minus the blemishes I received - it's a really good stock!

Advantages: 1)Cost; 2)Full Aluminum Bedding Block; 3) Ergonomics; 4)Versatile features (sling studs on side of forend with T-Nut slot on bottom of forend) 5)Nice affordable add-ons (were in excellent condition); 6)Short Length-of-Pull for the common sized person.

Disadvantages: 1) Quality Control (I received a very noticable blemish.

2) Customer Service was unwilling to offer anything in the way of: A Partial Refund, A Coupon Codes off next purchase, A Gift Card off next or Free Shipping off next purchase.

3) Was given a 3rd party email address to contact with my before and after picture [ccmmtt(at)ipa (dot)net. I never received an email response.
