    Depends on the extent of the damage. Repairing a previously oiled stock is easier. If it's a poly coat with a chip, the entire stock has to be redone. Starts at $80 and goes up from there.

    To remove poly and fix any dings, etc and go back with an oil finish will run about $300. If you'll notice, most war guns have deep and open grains. This allows a lot of moisture to get into the wood and cause potential damage. When we run the finish all the pores get filled, so it looks smooth and uninterrupted across the wood.

    Began installing a period correct recoil pad on a Burkard and Behr trap shot gun. The German 12 gauge is a break-action design circa early 1900's with a bottom lever that sets the hammer and breaks the barrels. The barrels are marked as Krupp steel and the engraving and final finish were performed by the American company L.C. Siner. An extremely rare piece.

    Nice..... are you doing any work with melt in lacquer sticks on wood dings?

    I've seen some years ago that you couldn't tell after they were done.
