Plastic Stock Contest

I just bought a Daisy Model 97 with a stock that is warped about as far as I have ever seen.

Despite the pronounced curve the seams are still tight with just a small chip out of the 'Pledge' butt plate.

Does anyone have a worse one than this?

It even has a reverse curve, it starts one way then goes WAY over the other direction.

When I first bought it I thought about putting a good stock on it since the rest of the gun is in good shape.

I think I will leave it as is for an example of the trouble experienced with the early plastic stocks.

I have seen some that were nearly as bad but they were split down the seams and or cracked, this one held together.

My first BB gun was a Daisy 80 and the stock on it warped (not nearly this bad). I always thought it was from standing it near the wood stove, behind the concrete block chimney (I did know enough not to put it next to the stove)in my grandparents basement.
