Type 1 Finish - Fancy
Finish - Used most often on Extra Fancy Grade
stocks, birch stock sets or custom built rifles. This is a shiny oil finish
that truly brings out the color and figure in the wood.
Type 2 Finish - Military
Dull Finish - Used most
often when the wood has never been sanded before, does not have deep dents
that require filler. This finish was developed to look like the finishes
found on original issue stock sets. The finish is smooth like the type 1,
but duller.

Raising all dings or dents that can be raised through
conventional means.

Epoxy filling of deep gouges as per government rebuild

-
Custom hand-rubbed oil finish where several coats are used,
so the drying process takes much longer than that of other commercially
available stocks. The results are a more attractive stock with a
longer lasting finish.
