ABSTRACT:
A contoured gunstock for fixed hand engagement includes a sideways projecting portion for accommodating a user's trigger hand in combination with an adjustable arm or back engaging attachment fixed to the butt of the gunstock. The sideways projecting portion allows one to most conveniently absorb the recoil of the rifle. The forearm of the rifle may include elongated recesses or grooves to accommodate a user's front hand. Alternately, the forearm of the rifle may advantageously include a flared out hand gripping portion at the front end of the forearm, the hand gripping portion having an increased height and width over the rest of the forearm.
