I purchased a replacement butt stock for my 1970 1100 in .410 from Gunstocks Inc. Total with shipping was $68.45 I received the stock and I immediately noticed the hole for the Spring Tube was drilled severely off-center causing a bad cast on and it didn't seat correctly on the action. See attached photo. I know that it was an unfinished stock and might require some fitting but the hole was so off center I was afraid that to take that much wood away I would run the risk of not being able to secure the butt stock with the nut securely. I sent the stock back to Gunstock Inc at a cost of 21 dollars so now I have almost 80 dollars in to the stock. The response was they got the stock to fit their receiver and sent a picture of an unfinished stock on a receiver it didn't look like a 410 or 28ga receiver to me.
They said it was not defective and responded (and this is a quote) "If you want to blame us for your inabillity and/or unwillingness to do the small amount of work it took to properly fit the stock to a gun it was made for then that is up to you"
I love being insulted by people I give money to don't you? They only refunded 39.71
Bottom line in my estimation they make a poor quality product and will not stand behind their crap. I have since found a finished butt stock with butt plate at Numrich (which in hindsite I should have started at) for 78 bucks
If you've had a different experience with Gunstock Inc consider yourself lucky. I found another Forum thread (24hourcampfire) with several people complaining on their quality. Caveat Emptor
