Ill have her right by the time im done with her mind atvbjimmy 1 Quote Link to post

bigmac 97kt 13,821 Posted May 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 Got the first coat of oil(tung oil) on her it has sunk strait into the wood so she will need another some time today all marks and dings have gone now she looks like a walnut stock . Im having the comp risers made for her and will have to drill two holes in the side of the stock for the screws to fit so she can be adjusted with ease . atvbjimmy 1 Quote Link to post
