Oil Finish Stock
Two things that I've long wanted to do are 1) put an oil finish on a repro stock, and 2) take one apart for cleaning and to view the guts first-hand. I finally found the right gun. Its a mod/full 12, 28", the stock had a big scratch in the poly coated finish that someone tried to rub out causing a dull spot and a big stain of some sort under the finish. The gun looked to have been apart before as screw heads didn't align but they were not buggered. With the help of Joe Bernfeld, Jim Williams and others here on the BBS the gun is back together and looks great. I was able to get all the screws lined up north-south and the finish is just what I had hoped for. It locks up super tight and crisp and everything works perfectly.
