    Re: Sako TRG-22? Lill-rambo, I noticed on Terje338's rifle that it has a thumbwheel adjustable cheekpiece and butt system. Is this the way it came or is it something he put on afterwards? Thanks, Len

    Birdsong Finishes

    Re: Birdsong Finishes As noted above, the finish is very thin overall as it supposedly binds/sinks into the porous metal. Very close tolerances are able to be held after application of the finish so you can do all fitting/machining and then send it all off for finish.

    Re: Birdsong Finish? Heard of it? longrange30, Birdsong finishes work very well for what they are intended to do. Your choices are black, green and FDE. They had a tan but it was supposedly difficult to deal with - not sure they use it still. The finish provides corrosion resistance as well...
