 well guys i have lots of time on my hands so i decided to sand the stock down on my titan , i have not put any shiny on it yet.  i might just put a good coat of wax  instead of clear . but give me your thoughts. thanks david

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.

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.

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
