Hi to Everyone from NW Louisiana
« on: January 01, 2013, 01:56:53 AM »
Hello Everyone,

I'm new to the forum but it seems like there's some really great stuff and a lot of nice folks here. I recently bought my second handi (a .35 whelen) and I am in the process of refinishing the stock to a darker finish. I personally like dark gun stocks. My other handi is in .444 marlin and it is accurate, big time. Anyway I'm sending a pic of the stock refinish in progress. I also scribed the stock and took it down quite a bit to fit the receiver better.

Anyway Happy New Year and best wishes to all.
