    stock cut down

    here is another one I got to play with. The stock didn't look right with this shorter barrel rifle. So I cut the stock to make it look much nicer.

    Here is an old school wood working sweating trick. i took a while to talk myself into doing it. This rifle took a fall and got a good deep ding in the forearm.

    it took very little sanding to get the remaining dent out, if I went much farther it would have changed the shape of the stock.
