    Smile gunstock refinish

    I have a Savage model 24, over/under that has a real "beat up" stock. I would like to refinish the stock myself.

    What is a good procedure to put a nice finish on a gunstock like this? I am doing it as a Christmas present for my Grandson, so I have a good length of time to work on it.
    Thanks for any help, Chuckwagon

    This might sound funny but the best finish is literally called "Gun Stock Finish" , my mate used to get it at the local guns & ammo store before it closed !

    Don't know really but I have a customer who is about to follow a recomendation based on tung oil - the pure Tung not the cut products marketed as Tung Oil. Call me at The Wood Works in Sydney if you want to go over it.
