Wayne59,
Yes, Brian does excellent work. I have had him do a couple of stocks for me and the work is always first class. This was an especially difficult stocks to duplicate because of the contours on the back of the action. I have a duplicator myself but I didn't feel that my machine or I were up to doing this one. The stock is extra hard Claro from an older tree out of California, I had forgotten what type of walnut it was till someone jogged my memory.
Brian did the duplication, the heading up of the stock, and the checkering and the finish work. I am very pleased with how it turned out and the new owner is as well. Bob
