I posted here earlier in the week, my previously bubba'd mauser that I am (Depending on view point) either continuing to ruin , or improving. I spent the last few nights after the wife & kids went to bed, out in the shop reshaping & reifinishing the stock, reshaping & grinding the bolt handle polishing the butt plate, polishing the bolt, grinding the follower to allow the bolt to close on an empty magazine, etc, etc. I had a lot of fun! I wouldnt mind picking up another something in need of further bubba'ing .
I refinished the stock by sanding it, and restaining it. It is a really straight grained birtch, so I did a faux finish....
What do you think? Before and after pics attached.
