I may have acquired a 1100 LT20. My sister took it in trade as partial payment on an old travel trailer and I currently have it in my possession. It is in need of a new or at least better stock. The current one has the fluer de lis pattern and has been cut off and a Pachymer decelerator pad with a 1/2 in spacer which does not fit to the stock nor does the pad fit to the spacer, plus the wood has some gouges which are too deep to do anything with.
I checked with Numerich and they only have stocks for standard 20 ga not the LT, and do notsee anything on ebay or gunbroker.
Any help in finding a better stock will be appreciated. If necessary I do not object to the newer checkering pattern if I can find a forend with matching checkering pattern.

Best thing to do is keep checking ebay, gunbroker, and gunsamerica. There's 2 on ebay right now but they ain't cheap. Times have REALLY changed since I got a mint used set $54 and a new straight grip set for $150.

The only thing I see is a nice youth set. I would prefer a standard stock but may have to go this route.

Thanks shooter13. I just looked at Boyd's and they are too modern for my taste. I do see a stock for a 20 gauge LW magnum listed at Numrich. Will that fit a LT 20.. There are so many variations I want to be sure to get the correct one It is checkered mahogany and would match my foreend. They also have a plain walnut forend and buttstock for the LT so may go that route, but if the LW would fit it might be perfect.
I am rather a novice concerning the 1100, although I have a 12 ga I purchased at the Izmir, Turkey NATO Rod and Gun club back in 1972 when stationed there with the USAF JJK

LT and LW stocks and fore ends will definitely interchange. And the Magnum designation only means it has a recoil pad on it. Same dimensions.

Thanks Virginian. Numerich has a stock and forend in mahogany listed as LW. I called them earlier today and their rep said it would not work, even though a youth set was listed as LT/LW. I really doubted them. Now I will order and give it a try.

Numrich is usually better than that.

Yes, Numrich has good reputation. I have ordered from them before, but was simply stating what their customer service/sales rep said.

Will do. I checked their return policy, so at least it is returnable.

Numrich is usually very good. I needed a replacement takedown screw for a Marlin 39A, vintage 1939. Turns out there were 3 variations. WIth the serial number they fixed me up.

Ah, Marlin 39a I still have mine that my father purchased for me new in 1952. Somewhere along the line a small part broke. It was some kind of guide or cartridge cutoff ( I am going from memory now) basically a rectangular cross section maybe 3/16 square about 1 1/2" long with one edge tapered off into a long bevel so the lever movement could depress it. Dad and I took the shaft out of an old automotive shock absorber and ground filed and polished a replacement which is still in roughly 55 years later.

My 39A was my Grandaddy's, and I have replaced several parts just to get it to run like new again. That is one tack driving little son of a gun.

Sometime back in the very early 60's dad put one of the little Weaver rimfire scopes on it and we really found out the accuracy. Years later the scope failed and I put one of the little Lyman receiver sights on it which is the way it remains. Even with my 70 year old eyes its still a tack driver with the peep sight.

Looks like this thread is turning into a Marlin discussion...
I own a Model 80C bolt action from 1960 and a Model 60 Glenfield semi from1980. |

I meant the newer ones. I have a couple made up through the early 2000's that are definetly Marlins. Last one purchased was a nice little 1894CL in 32-20.
