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.

[bigmac 97kt 13,730]

Well look at what we have here

 

why do they cover up wood like this

 

:nono:

 

As leeview would say the grain is there you just have to bring it out

Well this time your right as bi-leave it or not its a walnut stock that has been covered with a thick stain and sheen over it

 

and it came like that from the factory what the feck ,

 

Vizlauk has just been and the first thing he said was that's a walnut stock

 

just a little more sanding smooth

 

and a few coats of TUNG OIL is all she is going to get

First coat of oil

 

this will be left for an hour and a half then wiped off

 

buff,d and left for a few hours to soak in as its just sucking the oil into the wood it was that dry

 

It had a red under coat under the stain iv left some of it in the stock as i think it works well with it

Why the f#*k would they not just send the stock out like that from the factory. It's a lovely piece of timber...soon to look even better I reckon pal ???

[bigmac 97kt 13,730]

Matt if i can get her sorted by Sunday im going to take her out with me on the crows and pigeons lol

 

open sites and all

 

its beyond me why some one at the factory would cover some thing so nice up

 

The wood alone would sell the gun in a rfd shop
