Refinishing a rifle stock


Recommended Posts

REP

I have an Anschutz 1417 .22LR which I bought second hand and I find the accuracy superb. Unfortunately it had a varnished beech stock which looked appalling. I removed the varnish and attempted an oil finish but it still looks awful.

Any advice or comments on a matt black painted surface. Can anyone point me at any books, articles or other source of advice on preparation, what paint, what surface finish for best wear, etc.

I realise I might finish up needing to buy a new walnut stock for £160+ but it might be worth a try! REP
