My new custom encore stocks
« on: October 10, 2009, 09:51:32 AM »
I just picked up my new wood for my encore and it is great. This wood from Stocker Gun Stocks is a very functional work of art. It looks like the metal is just melted into the wood. The inletting is that good. I have a 25-35 barrel on the gun and the extra barrel is a 9.3x74r SSK barrel. This is exhibition grade walnut with a very hard satiny smooth finish that I feel will stand up to hunting and range use. The finish will be an easy touch up if scratched. I am very pleased with this wood.

Very nice. Best looking wood I've ever seen on a TC.

That is just beautiful. Man that is too pretty to shoot, or at least I'd be afraid to put a ding in it.

This wood is very dense and hard with a matte hand rubbed oil finish. If it dings or scratches, it will fix easy.  Anyway, all that will just add character and memories to the gun.  I plan on hunting with it.
