pianoman 3,584 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'm looking forward to seeing how this Stoeger turns out Jimmy. From the pics you have of mine I'm just in awe of what you've done to it. So if there's a decent swirl of grain under the varnish in this Stoeger stock, you are the man to bring it forth. I've a good feeling it's going to be really something after you've finished it. Quote Link to post
