Default New Wood

Well I got the wood in from Numrich. Really nicely figured. No checkering, but that may just be a project to get into at some point in the future. This isn't a permanent mounting, I just wanted to verify how the wood looked together on the gun.

I am currently deciding how best to strip the wood and then how I am going to refinish it. Possibly truoil or possibly BLO or possibly LMF permalyn. We will just have to see what I decide when I finish my research.

Who knows, I might end up deciding to go with french polish...\

All I know is it won't be satin.
