My dad recently sent me my boyhood .22, an Ithaca Model 49
single-shot. The ejector was having problems and required taking the
entire gun apart in order to fix it. Since it was all apart anyway,
I decided to make some upgrades. The new stock is longer and
shoulders lower than the original. I used a couple of nicely figured
pieces of walnut that I found in the rack. I reshaped and polished
the trigger, the lever and the front sight. It now fits me perfectly
and feels great in the hand.Michael Meyer
