cOriginally Posted By: pyscodogI have a 600 Mohawk that the checkering is very faint (for lack of a better way to describe it) that I wish someone could cut it and really make it stand out. I'm to chicken to try it or I might give it a shot. Would it cost much just to have it redone?
Did you try contacting some gun smiths online or locally to talk to them about if they do it, or have someone they use?
I would imagine that it's like tattoo's and should look at their past work.
But a proper chisel and an old stock might be the way to go if you are just touching up the ones that exist. I would think that you can find 10/22 stocks for almost free.
The real trick will be the staining and finishing afterwards. I wouldn't think a Poly finish would be good and assume that they are using some kind of oil finish in many layers. Something to look up before starting..
I know that i can do a lot of wood working, but it's the finishing that really makes all the difference in the final outcome.
