Here's a link that might help. they don't have a solid pink laminate, but they have blanks with pink in them.
Laminated Colors
You may also want to check with Rutland Plywood, they build a lot of laminate blanks.

Boyds has had pink (pink and black?) laminated stocks from time to time. They also sell blanks. You might call them.

Looks a little like some sort of pakkawood, maybe pakkawood that was bleached the way woodworkers treat the wood for French Provincial furniture?

Shawn. I recently purchased a youth model savage and had the synthetic stock painted pink at a body shop. It looks awesome! just another option if you can't come up with a laminated stock.

Dang...woodworkers already know where to get the stuff

Ok, here's whatcha do...get a unfinished BIRCH stock / blank...or other light wood like Parawood (White Mahogany).

Go get some pink stain from your local unfinished furniture store. (Wood You or other)


NEXT!
