Sounds similar to the oxidation process I used. I will check into this. Always enjoy finding different ways to color wood.

HW97 with the Hawke scope. Shot it yesterday with the SWFA 20x42 fixed scope seemed to be a good match!

Took my HW35e out for a few minutes, and quickly gave up. Temp is 96 with heat index of 103 right now and will get a little worse as the afternoon goes on.

Rain this afternoon. Smokin line up today. HW80 .177, 97kt .177, HW95 .177, R9 .20, TX200 Hunter .177 and BSA Polaris .22. 
I don’t use the BSA much but what a tack driver.
The loading port is odd. 
You have to slide the round down. You can open and close cover once cocked. I was using JSB 15.89 and found the skirts got crushed when closing cover. 
Still stacked rounds at 30 yds. This gun would be a desirable if not for the loading method. All guns performed like their last. Crow

Today it was the Crossman Venom Dusk.
I've had it over 10 years, it was my first exposure to a gas ram. Unfortunately it just will not shoot straight.
I've tried every hold, pellet, scope, adjustments, maintenance....
About once every year I get it back out and try again but the best it will ever be is 2" groups at 20 yards

TO5 trigger RWS Diana 52 Luxus .177. Newly received Accurized ZR mount from Hector Medina and the Athlon 4-14 FFP scope I'd been waiting to mount until I got the ZR mount. The better scope really let me see the capabilities of this gun. Shoots beautifully. I zeroed it at 20 yards yesterday and if I do my job it's just a 10 shot ragged hole. Looking forward to stretching its legs soon. BoG, the teak oil was spot on. Four coats later and it has a beautiful matte finish. Looks even better in person. Don't know if you can tell in the photo but that checkering is oh so sharp!

You and me both. Awesome guns. CrowHW97 favorite airgun in my collection. Its better than Ill ever be
I like your scope. The 97 is the perfect underlever. IMO. Crow
We’re getting frost warnings at nite. Tonite was the first nite I came in cold. Yesterday I was wearing shorts on my range at nite. The 35’s are a treat. Crow

If anyone dreams for a rifle the 97 .20 would fill the order. That’s the last rifle I bought, a blue lam. I really like your green lam.
Nice stock and gun. I prefer matte finish as well. Crow

No shooting today in town but the lites saved the day. Tonite I shot my HW98 .22 and HW97 Black line STL .22. Both are favourites Crow

HW90. Just put a .22 barrel on it. Converted from .177. Have enough .177 break barrels Iron sites because it is a scope eater, lol.

Get out of town! No C&C machines back in the day. Look at the machining. Masterpiece. Thanks for sharing. Crow
A few of you guys are lucky enough to own a 55. Sweet. Nice guns, enjoy. Crow
