i just nicely got off the phone with a Rifle Stock maker from California
Richards Microfit Gunstocks Richards Micro-fit Gunstocks.

they called me to tell me my order was shipping out (for the custom Wood Stocked Mags I'm building)
and to ask me if i had a mock up of a Paintball gun's action
so that they can add this to the list of actions that they can inlet for...

i gave them Palmer's web address,
and told them to both call and talk to PPS and consider inletting for a Blazer.

so let's wait and see what comes of this...

i just may have started something good;
or Craig might want to punch my lights out lol!

Every few years, PPS toys with the idea of discontinuing the Hurricane from their catalog. I am fairly certain that a good sized Hurricane Mass order (setting aside the question of whether they would ever agree to that) would go a long way toward making that a reality.

How much would it cost to make a stock out of brass?

It's not the cost so much as it's the fact that you would need to be able to shoulder the thing. What's a Cane weigh? 8 lbs? Add a brass stock to that, you're talking probably another 10 lbs....

Imagine the shipping costs!

Full brass stock? If it was solid, probably more around 20lbs, if not 30.
