Cheek Piece

Batty is right. You can make your own cheekpiece. A length of softwood battening is a good start, as it's easy to carve to shape. You can use this as a template to make a "best" one from nice hardwood later if desired.

I have a template for one drawn on paper. If your, or someone elses skills permit, I would try and make one from a piece of plastic which could be heated and bent/formed so it would look like the ones fitted to the G&E XRS stock.

 

The ones fitted to the 2013 are plywood or laminate which are formed and machined. very difficult to copy, and very expensive to buy. They have a tendency to crack across where it is angled. A bit like the stock! Take care.
