Dang thats pretty!

 

Thanks

 

Some of those old guns did have some nice wood hiding under the finish. This is a pre-war Wards Western Field (Savage Model 29).

 

I recently paid $150.00 for a Rem. 510 semi-inletted, 90% shaped stock that I paid extra for "some figure". That figure does not compare with the stock on your rifle.

Beautiful stock.

Thanks i found this one in a pawn shop and someone had done a crude refinish on it and it looked terrible but when i saw the quality of the wood i bought it and stripped it and i used Tru oil on it.

 

can't find figure like that even on a New Ruger No1. Nice!

 

I bought a rusty Glenfield 100G single shot a few years back, It had this crappy finish on the stock and once stripped and refinished with Arrow Wood finish, this was the result. It's Spalted Beech.

Very Nice! That model was made by Marlin. The wood was so nice on all those older guns because it came from old growth forests. Not plant and harvest ones. Most Marlins had nice wood. Enjoy it.
