I just received a semi finished stock from Numrich. It was supposed to be walnut but it's not like any walnut I've seen. I'm sure it's beech. Even the pic on their site looked like beech. It's a good price and I'm keeping it.
My question, has anybody tried staining beech? I have but they were old military stocks that I didn't get all the oil out of. They didn't end up being what I was looking for.
I will cut about 2" off the fore end and play with that a little but any body else's experience would be helpful.
Thanks.
