This is a long, sad story… in short a beautiful Trap configured BD ’97 was damaged in transit, limited to the stock but serious none the less. Talking with experts it’s deemed non-repairable, to collector standards, due to one crack running through the checkering. I’ve searched and searched the web for genuine replacements only to find Bedlans offerings, priced at 2k. Hopefully the forum is more productive than my searches. TIA!

Chad,
It is extremely unlikely that you will ever find an original Black Diamond Trap stock set that is not attached to its original receiver & slide-bar assembly. People do not “part” out high-end guns. Your only option is to find somebody willing & able to repair the cracked piece on your gun, or purchase new wood for it and have it hand fitted to your gun.

I talked with Dan at Bedlans, he has a few but very pricey…for good reason.
