Looks nice - is that the original color, or did you stain it?

Thanks

I've been trying to darken up a beech stock - what did you use ? Seems everything I try never looks like I think it's going to look.

Very, very nice indeed.... Good job, looks sharp.. I say give it a couple of coats of hand rubbed wax and make it really shine

The more I look at the pics of these Titans the more I want to run down to Wallyworld and snag one....

my buddy says they remind him of a more expensive gun. he has a RWS 48 in .22 and he says the smooth cocking, and short firing stroke reminds him of his rifle.

A few coats of Formbys tongue oil rubbed out by hand and you will have a great finish.

Looks sweet as is !

You can get it at WalMart. It has instructions on how to apply each application and etc: I have used it on many of my bows I built. I have done some in a high sheen and a satin sheen. Brings out the grain and the more coats the deeper the grain looks.

Looks pretty darn good to me.

thank you chortdraw, i am going to try that i will post the results, i have finished a few rifle stocks in my time one of the best i ever did i took a torch and lightley ran it back and forth across a stock after i sanded it, it raised the grain up and of course turned it black i buffed it real good with a couple different grades of steel wool and then sealed it, it looked like a black stain with all the wood grain showing thanks david
