Finished the 16 Ga. SxS Today.

I went to Cabela's (I can see it from my house) and got a Limb Saver recoil butt pad for the 16 and finally finished all the wood. I did the wood in a dark walnut. I had to sand it forever because some moron carved his initials in it. I got all the metal looking good and the receiver taken apart and cleaned up real nice.

Opening day is this Friday so that'll be the first I get to fire it.

I wish I could find my camera. I'd post pics of it.

did you sand out the carving or put some filler in it?

I bet it looks good.
When I worked at the chair factory I done all the finishes on new stuff and in my spare time I would refinish rifles and shotguns for myself and people that worked there.
Never was very good at blueing them tho.

I sanded it all out. I'm surprised it turned out as well as it did.

It shoot VERY smooth. I put that LimbSaver but pad on it and it really points and recoils well.


Can't hit a damn thing with it.
