Default Stock & Forend Work

I just picked up my 16ga hammer gun from Dave Kerr here in Fl. As you can see from the pictures he did the stock and forend. Compared to what it was, they look great. I did'nt want the brand new, out of the factory look and I think he did a good job on that aspect. I like how you can still see the bumps and bruises but you got a nice smooth finish. Some of the gouges were too deep so he had use some wood filler. Now I have a gun my dog won't be embarresed to hunt with.
Here is the before pictures when it was for sale.

Very nice Angel....I don't think your dog will be ashamed to hunt behind that sweet little 16.

Sometimes a fresh finish over the bumps and bruses of age are just what is called for.
