cim lam monticarlo project !!Done!!
« on: February 08, 2008, 02:26:22 PM »

This is a stock I just got from swampman. Real nice. Just didnt fit, felt like I was holding a 2x4 so. I took the saw to it



This is after the saw. No turning back now

This is after some shaping. Needs some filing & lots of sanding. Fits real good in the hand


Spring needs to get here. Im running out of stocks to cut on. More to come as I proceed on this

This is after sanding & 1 coat of minwax



Put it on my 243 Feels alot better than the plastic stock I had on it. Feels real good.
I dont care what gun Im using as long as Im hunting

Nice work, too bad the checkering had to be sacrificed tho.  ;)
