with all due respect, I don't believe any one here makes their own replacement bullseyes. The white grip cap spacer and buttplate spacer can be made from white 5 gallon plastic pails or white polypropylene stock, but the bullseye is best sourced "original" - you can cut the stock piece in half, and get 2 for 1 mileage out of it...

shoot straight, gewehr

 

So there's no rubber hose thingy at home depot for 19 cents a foot that will do? Ok, off to ebay, including shipping they are cheaper than the gun parts guys.

Midway has new ones for $2.99 + shipping.

The ones Midway sells can be sliced in half using a utility knife to make two replacements,
as they are a bit longer than is necessary.
To do the repair right, you need to drive the new bullseye in, then contour it using sandpaper,
then refinish your stock.

 

Often thought about making one out of brass and drill the center and put in black silicone. Reckon you might be able to make one from a white ink pen barrel.

 

Why are you encouraging this lunacy? This makes no sense whatsoever...... But I do want to see a picture of the abortion when it is over. :biggrin:

Dawei sells 2 for $6.

 

support a fellow MO-er get them from Dawei !!

 

What I encourage is to make and invent and share what you have done. It's all good when you make a custom Marlin.

 

one with an 8-ball instead of a bullseye would be cool.

 

No, more bad... Skull and cross bones! (not a dorky thing like the "bone collector" logo though)

 

Got a few in from ebay. One went in just fine, cut off the excess with a serrated bread knife, filed it down to meet the contour of the stock. Take your time and check your work often when you get close to the wood. Used the cutoff portion to do a 35 Rem that had lost its bullseye. It was a tight fit, I chucked it in a dremel tool and turned it against 220 sand paper backed by a popsicle stick. A couple tries, few taps with a brass hammer and the second one was done. They came out really nice.
Thanks for the help

Didn't have to use any glue/epoxy??

 

A little late to this, but just for info remember seeing a post in here some time ago where somebody made their own out of two different types of wood (dark/light) to replace their plastic ones. I thought he did a good job, and looked pretty slick myself...

 

home depot has nylon round spacers white for 66 cents that fit the hole only if I can think what I can use for the center black dot?
