after alot of sanding, wood filler, more sanding, OOOO steel wool,minwax antique oil, rottenstone with 3 in 1 oil and johnson's paste wax on a richard's black walnut grade fancy wolverine 98 mauser stock, it is finished!!!!!! i did ok, it was first time i ever had the un-sanded stock. i learned alot of NOT what to do!!!!!:eek: the next un-sanded stock will be a 93 spanish mauser Apache gold wolverine stock.
i know where the mishaps are, but all in all, i go from a bad stock(water damage, bent to the left on rifle channel...) to a good one.
you want to know somethin' funny? i have never shot it!!!!!! i have the reloading dies and the brass, but not the boolits!!!! go figure.............
