That's a really nice piece of work Brian! Crazy wood, especially the forend! And I really like that you didn't darken the checkering - it allows us to follow that beautiful wood grain.
That stock you replaced looks like an original Meriden stock and checkering with the "Trap Comb".
Really impressive work!
