I don't know of any one in Canada that stocks them. I've bought a few from them and their service from the US is pretty good. They usually ship within a month .. some time sooner. Good quality products and the price is right.

I ordered a Boyd’s stock a few years... more like 8 but it was simple and hassle free.

Ordering direct is the easiest way. I had mine in about 3.5 weeks.

I didn’t think anyone would stock them (there’s an unavoidable pun there), I just figured someone could bring them in.

By the way Kurt, what rifle do you want the stock for, if you don't mind me asking?
I did a lot of looking and research and ended up buying four stocks from Stockys and Boyds.

It’s a stock for a CZ 455, it’s called the pro varmint.

I don't think Stockys has anything for that gun.
Boyds has great service and I am very impressed with the stocks. I ordered a Pro Varmint for a 22 and a Prairie Hunter for a 22-250. Very good quality and dropped in perfect...

Stock was delivered this morning. Wifey sent me all of the shipping info.
Stock was shipped USPS

Postal charges and fees (paid to Boyds ) - $44.95 US.
Boyds charged $60 CDN


GST (paid to Canada Post ) - $9.75 CDN
Handling fee (paid to Canada Post) - $9.95 CDN


That's for 1 stock.
Total time to receive the stock was about 3 1/2 weeks.
Total cost for everything was about $275 CDN

edit
Fun Fact - Boyds used to call the Pro Varmint stock the Tacticool. Import to Canada was not allowed.
