I was really happy with how the wood turned out on this gun. I dont know what was on the stock from the factory, but it had a real reddish color to it. I used no stain on the stock when i refinished it. Just pro custom oil. The natural color of the wood was great without any help.

Brian -What was the original finish on Reproductions? Urethane? If so, how did you remove it?

Yes. Some sort of urethane. Acetone will soften it some. But sanding does most of the work. 120 grit works well.

Acetone did nothing to remove the 'urethane' finish on one of my Repros. The thing that really did the trick was a paint remover Kathy uses in refinishing furniture that has had several coats of different colored paints, problem is I don't remember the name of the paint remover.

I think Brownells sell some sort of thermonuclear paint remover for urethane finishes. I understand it helps, but it's still a bear to strip off the urethane
