[QUOTE="coolhandluke, post: 1549010, member: 13284"] Also decided to tackle the poly finish on my 1903 match rifle. I'm assuming that the previous owner layed down the poly when he converted in for match use back in the day. He did a good job, but it just wasn't right. The refinishing process was easy enough. I just stripped with denatured alcohol and did an aged oil finish topped off with a military wax coat. The stock looks a little more red in the photo than in person. In person it looks like a 1903 stock should - medium brown walnut with red undertones. Much better now... Before: [attach=full]91846[/attach] After: [attach=full]91847[/attach] [/QUOTE]
