I think this will make some beautiful grips.

where are you getting that from? I would be interested in some for guitar tops if they come in large enough pcs. NICE maple!!
That is some good looking wood there!
Life's hard, even harder if your stupid.
depending on the weight, that could be oregon maple or tiger maple. eastern maple will weigh about a pound more in a gun stock, maybe more.
Beautiful wood--I love curly maple. Nice find and buy. If enough had been found would have made nice gunstock for smokelpole, IMO. BC
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me."
If you like curly maple at good prices, check out Tiger Hunt.
The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
Love that pattern. It almost looks like Marble slabs.
Some how photos never look as good as seeing it in person.
I look forward to seeing your finished project grips.

i find amazing curly maple of lowes
dig through the regular maple boards and you won't be able to go more than 5 boards without finding amazing curls
this was from some of that
You can laminate that board into a rifle stock. could use a plain piece or walnut piece in the middle, clamp and glue it. actually be more stable than a one piece blank.
no problem, just passing it on.
i didn't believe it until i saw for myself
