I have an original WW2 Inland 'HI' low wood M1 Carbine stock. It is in good shape but the wood was dark and very dirty. First I have given it a bath in some water-down Murphy Oil, which helped eliminate most of the Korean text and grime. After drying, the wood looks very dry and I'd like to give it some protective coating as well as fresh coat of something...Linseed oil or whatever is correct for this kind of stock. I have not seen as much for refinishing M1 Carbine stocks as I have for Garands, so I might need some advise. I am on a basic next-to-nothing budget so I'd like to make it as quick and painless as possible. I just want this retain the USGI look.
Ideas ? Surely some of you have done this before - there are alot of beat up carbine stocks out there.
