Looks great! I dig the textured finish, definitely unique.
I've got a Springfield/Savage 234 with an unfinished stock if you feel like finishing it for me ;-)

Did you sand them down first? Looks pretty smooth.
Nope. I just always make sure to check for rust and don't buy any that are starting to rust.
That ugly thing is beautiful, very nice!!!
C'mon Dennis,
That's why you get guns to protect your guns! Take my HK45 for example...
We came home late one evening to a broken window. I immediately pulled the P30SK and started working the home to find an intruder laying on a hallway floor soaked in his own urine with the backwards "HK" logo imprinted on his forehead and my HK45 standing on his chest dialing 911!
Later, over a beer, I asked why he didn't just shoot the guy and he said, "I didn't want to make that big of a mess without your permission."
I was blown away! Freakin' pistol is more courteous than my kids!!!

Just wanted to update.
2.5 years later and the bare paint is holding up fantastically. This has been my go to plinker for the last 2 years and even with the kids banging it around there's hardly any damage to the paint.

Very nice. It was fun to go back and look at this again. You do fine work.
Necro post, but I though some of you might like to see how it's holding up after almost 4 years.
The paint is holding up very well and not a single sign of the stock repairs failing anywhere.
(Although I need to replace the scope that broke when it got dropped not to long ago.)
