Sunday Gunday: Doan Trevor Custom Rifles — Master of Wood

Detail of Doan Trevor rimfire stock (Fiddleback walnut) with Stiller Action 2500 X. Doan Trever, a New Mexico gunsmith, is a master of wood. Doan Trevor Custom Rifle Building is where he creates stunning figured wood stock and builds complete wood- and fiberglass-stocked firearms that look as good as they shoot. Doan is an expert with a keen eye for beauty and a mind that values function. Hand-crafting wood is a dying art. This Sunday, we will celebrate four projects created by Doan. These include two complete rifles, a special F Class stock designed for multiple actions and an F TR stock for a Sako Action. Visit DoanTrevor.com for dozens of stunning stocks and rifles. Mausingfield America Rifle With English Walnut Stock Doan said: “This is an extremely figured piece of English Walnut, with burls and flower. There’s a burl/flower along the bottom of the stock that looks like an Owl, and the other side looks like the Sandia Mountains. This rifle is 30 PCR. Doan says: “The owner enjoys this rifle immensely.”

It has both an electronic and mechanical trigger. The charging cable must be modified to clear the trigger extension when using the wood stock. In order to keep the aesthetics, I also made it possible to remove the trigger shield to make charging easier. The bedding will not change if you remove the trigger guard.

He wanted to use only one stock. I designed a bedding system to accomplish this. The two pieces on the fore end of Claro Walnut are mirror images.”

Doan reports that the pistol grip cap was made from a piece Screw Bean Mesquite Wood found in his old front yard, Albuquerque. I live in Rio Rancho now. Look at the bottom picture with the blue background. The rifle does not yet have any stippling. Sometimes, stippling is the last step. When this order is required, there’s no room to make a mistake.
