following up on the lead posted by member axe murderer, I picked up a rough Nigerian type stock (just wood, no metal) from ebay. I was able to get some parts from Greg at Satandard (still looking for a Beretta grip in good shape). Anyway, this is what I've managed to piece together. The stock was very rough when I received it, pretty much no sanding done to it, but it turned out to have some nice grain. I'm not experienced at working on wooden stocks, so I find myself out of my element. I'd like to finish it with linseed oil, but when I started to sand it to get a smooth surface to stain, a void in the grain appeared on the stock. I know this may seem nit picky but I thought that I'd like to try to fill the hole with something that might make it less noticable once I've applied a couple coats of oil and sanded it down. Can any members with stock finishing experience give me any advice on how best to fill the hole in the stock to make it less noticable? zpfile006.jpgzpfile006.jpgzpfile005.jpgzpfile005.jpg
