This looks like just the thing if one is forced to carry concealed when hunting leopards or tigers. One never knows when one might encounter a leopard or tiger when in the movie theater, or when out with a date for a nice meal in an upscale restaurant.
I would recommend a laser sight for when one is in the movie theater. Perhaps, along with a bottle opener, GPS locator, and lug nut wrench for changing tires, this stock comes with a laser sight, too.
I expect that the person suggesting this abomination has a great deal of experience with it, too.

Modifying the IOF 30-06 sights
The IOF 30-06 comes with a pair of functionally excellent sights. They are adjustable and can be quite useful to a shooter who knows how to use them
Unfortunately, they don't look rather appealing , especially the front sight hood.
I wanted to improve this in a manner which still retains the basic foundations of these sights.

Re: Modifying an IOF 30-06
Rear sight is the Running Boar unit procured from New England Custom Guns in USA.
Its a small unit that is sent in an envelope.
This was mounted on two dove tail units which are mounted on the existing rear sight base

Re: Modifying an IOF 30-06
The small screw on the Rear Sight allows lateral movement for windage adjustment and the locking screw on the dovetail unit allows for the elevation adjustment

Re: Modifying an IOF 30-06
The existing front sight hood was replaced by a smaller more streamlined hood which swivels.
The existing front sight was replaced by New England Custom Guns Patridge Sight
