    To Strip or Not To Strip

    Thank you. It has good depth when viewed in person. After staining for the final finish I slapped a few coats of tru oil on and then blocked it out. Skip sanding between those first filler coats. All sanding in between coats does is put finish on your floor and risks sanding the stain off...

    HW/Weihrauch HW - Marksman Model 40 Air Rifle. Closest HW match is . . . ?

    Randy, it's a variant of a BSF . That's why it has the screwed on rail.

    To Strip or Not To Strip

    This is a BSA .22 Mercury Challenger Carbine I refinished some time ago. I don’t normally like gloss, but it came out so pretty. And has a fine British blue job to match. Period 4x Bushnell Sportview scope. The repainted back block and trigger guard are flawless. Recut the checkers.

    Good job. A good gunsmith always makes the slotted screws line up.

    To Strip or Not To Strip

    At first I thought the top stock was the same stock as the bottom one but quickly realized that the top one is a "stock photo" lifted from an add and the bottom one is a completely different gun. The growth rings are different. Very good result regardless.

    N/A Marksman 0035 not shooting

    I didn't know they sell on Amazon. I don't buy from them often but I would look at their website and then communicate through ebay. I had better success communicating that way.

    HW/Weihrauch HW30 progress

    This one started as an R8 pattern but I made the forearm deeper. Fits my Hw50 too. Inletting has to be finished first. Then final shaping I have some Pachmayr pads but have been looking at other brands. I’m moving away from white spacers. Will consider a black grip cap. Your FWB124 stock is...

    N/A Howa 55G - Help needed

    I think I saw them in one of the Airgun Digests or maybe shooters bible. Something like that. Very rare piece. Howa is up there with Miroku as a Japanese manufacturer. Fine. Danny has pictures of about everything. Awesome.

    HW/Weihrauch HW30 progress

    Randy, So far I have more in the stock than I paid for the rifle . Price a quality blank with nice figure. I wanted a stock but don't like the style of what people offer. A friend offered to teach me to inlet the stock after he duplicates them (and not for free!). A real pro I am so blessed to...
