Currently I'm attempting to carve m78 "styled" furniture for my 308 saiga. So far I've got a good start on shaping the stock. I'm using pics from the internet as my reference material. Does anyone on here have a m78 and be willing to provide me with some rough dimensions?

There are some good pictures here!

I would go to the the 4th one down and a put it on a photocopier, then blow it up to actual size, plus about 15%. Then use it as a template to hack out your rough blank!

 

The end that mounts to the receiver is a known dimension.

Well, this is where I'm at right now with this project.

I know it's not a direct knock off, but I'm happy with it so far.

The handguard is next. I have it started, but it's going to be the most difficult part to make.

It may take me a while to make it. The only tools I have are wood rasps and a dremmel.
