Bought a bunch of PVC pipes, screws, magnets, and glue to make a VR gun stock. Will also 3D print some community-made cups which will hold the actual controllers and connect to the pipe. You could 3D print an entire stock but this method is much easier and faster. PVC is cut and ready.

What is VR stock?
VR gun stocks make virtual reality shooting games much more immersive, physically demanding, and realistic. On top of that, they can improve your aim drastically and give you an edge over your opponents. However, this greatly depends on the type of VR rifle stock you have, what game you’re playing, and how well the stock can be calibrated ...
Does the aim controller have a stock?
However, the Aim Controller doesn’t even have an actual stock to place against your shoulder. While using it, your hands are still suspended in mid-air in front of you and the experience feels similar to shooting games you’d play in an arcade (if you even remember what those are), rather than an immersive VR experience.
Step 1: Design
Design: I spent a lot of time looking at other stocks, and although I really like the look and feel of thumb-hole stocks, the action of this particular rifle (a "toggle-bolt") is better suited to an "open saddle" type design - so after a lot of sketching and thinking, I decided to model the stock on the beautiful Sako TRG 22 (which was also convenient since a friend of mine owns one and was kind enough to lend it to me for a while to use as reference.
Step 2: Prepare the Original Stock
Prepare the Original Stock: Note: Anyone doing their own inletting can skip this step..... ;) As I mentioned before, "inletting" a rifle stock is the process of cutting out the appropriate spaces, holes, and grooves into which the rifle barrel, receiver, and trigger group will drop into and be securely supported.
Step 3: Prepare the Laminated Blank
Prepare the Laminated Blank: I ordered a standard brown-laminate stock from Boyd's Gun Stocks ( http://www.boydsgunstocks.com ) and with a little maneuvering got my template to fit perfectly. I planned to to split the laminate stock open and "sandwich" the old stock in between laminate outer "skins" about 3/8" thick.
Step 4: Glue Up
Make Me a Sammich! (OK - You're a sammich....): Once the "core" part was cured, any voids were filled with a putty made by mixing 5-minute epoxy-and sawdust. The sides were cleaned up on a belt sander once the epoxy had cured.
Step 5: Cutting the Profile
Profiling: Next step was to trace the profile onto the blank in preparation for cutting out the profile.
Step 6: Scuplting and Shaping
Tip: I break up projects into "mini-tasks" and make task lists - this helps me be efficient and focused and keeps me from feeling overwhelmed or getting burned out. This also allows me to put in just 15 or 20 minutes (enough to complete a task) and still feel like I'm making progress.
Step 7: More Sculpting and Shaping
If a picture is worth 1000 words, this Instructable has about 175K words - so I'll let them do the talking.... ;)
