Ok guys here she is. The stain I used was Miniwax Express color in Emerald Green.They do have other colors. I got it at the local hardware store.Its water based but I coat it with layers of Miniwax Polycrylic for protection and a bit of shine.I like using this stain because its fool proof. Just wipe the excess off against the grain. So much quicker than traditional stains.
Ok so I had a friend shooting this gun with me .. he had the bright idea to offer me 100 bucks ..I decided to sell it to him..I now have 100 dollars and I still get to tinker with this gun.
