Got the stock from one of my forum members as he no longer used it due to the barrel rusting badly during storage. I purchased a .50cal barrel for it last week for $65 and it fit the bill nicely.
Here it is,
i currently have stripped the stock, reshaped it a good deal to remove the square look it had and now and applying 20 coats of Truoil before i knock it down to a satin finish.
The wood is absolutely AMAZING once i got it sanded down and smoothed out. I did a great deal of steaming to remove dents and scratches and it made for a beautiful stock in the end.
Just wet the stock with water to show the wood grain i found under the ugly finish that was on it LOL.
Congratulations FrontierGander, I'm glad you've seen the light and entered the Quality Muzzleloader, Buyers Club, :thumbup:
Now If we can only get you to go for the Gold and buy a top O' the line Traditions, you'll be all set! :w00t:
Well she looks beautiful this morning! Rubbed 2 coats of truoil into the stock last night and so this evening i will wet sand with 600grit and give her a couple more coats tonight. This is always the slow part LOL.
