Brian, I own one Big Horn Armory Model 89 and will be getting another one. Their "upgraded" wood leaves a lot to be desired. Here's a link:

I was hoping to get one of their ugly-duckling stocks duplicated and then do the final finish myself. Cecil Fredi is patiently working with me on selecting a blank right now. Have mixed feelings about checkering or not. The stocks they now put on their rifles have laser-cut checkering and I'd definitely rather have none than that.
