No issue with importing a stock.
It isn't an essential component part of a firearm, so no import permit required.

Never forget, the end goal is zero firearms of any type.
S.I. No. 187/1972 - Firearms (Temporary Custody) Order - Firearms seized
S.I. No. 21/2008 - Firearms (Restricted Firearms and Ammunition) Order 2008 - Firearm types restricted
Criminal Justice (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009 - Firearms banned & grandfathered
S.I. No. 420/2019 - Magazine ban, ammo storage & transport restricted
Criminal Justice (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2023 - 2023 Firearm Ban (retroactive to 8 years prior)

First thing to check is, if the seller will send to Ireland or even NI with Brexit some won't send anything over to either.
If sending to ROI you may have to pay custom duty
If sending to NI no customs duty.
Sending from NI to ROI no custom duty as NI is still operating under EU custom regulations.
