I do not have those records any more. They were distroyed from the Floyd flood.

That does not appear to be "claro" walnut (juglans hindsii) on Mr. Bernfeld's Repro pictured above, IMHO, it is a nice piece of "English walnut" (juglans regia). During my "Repro Period", I owned 6 of them and sought out the ones stocked in California "English" rather than claro. I used a 28" double trigger 12 ga as a "travel gun" on 3 African safaris without a problem.

Im thinking wood with dence flame type grain is claro and the stocks with light and dark lines that run end to end is english??? I own both types of repro's...stuning quality of wood. Look at the description for the RBL wood type and grades on Galazans web page...it shows some good pics if the wood. I may be wrong on this asumption??? thanks Kenny SXS ohio

To be more frank, that piece of wood almost screams "English Walnut"

...in a Californian accent, of course...
