wow that is really beutiful. i think i need a piece that will measure 2 1/2 wide 6 inches tall 36 inches in length you think you can get me one. then i can make up my own stock.

Stock Wood

I bought that piece from Pecatonica Supplies, you can get them from Track of The Wolf. They are 90% inlet and you have to finish them up. You can get just stock blanks from a lot of stock suppliers and wood suppliers on Ebay. If you buy off Ebay just make sure the piece has been air dried for about 3 years. What type rifle do you want to restock or build? I'm sure we can find what you need.

Would "luscious" be too sissy of a term for a rifle? If so, how about ? Very nice!

Lovely work.

The wood is stupendous (I guess we can thank Mother Nature for that but you did a nice job cutting it to show it off), the carving cleanly done with skill and flair and the silver wire inlay playful in design.

K.A.T what do you use for stain on your maple. I use Aqua Fortis(nitric acid with steel wool dissolved in it). If it's a secret you don't have to say but it sure looks nice....and luscious
