Here are a couple of photos of rifles I built. Top is a Mauser M98 built on a Westley Richards pattern. The wood is a good grade of American walnut that has been stained with nitric acid and finished with alkanet oil of my own manufacture. The Mannlicher is a model 1956 in .30-06 and sports a reworked factory stock with a Winchester Steel Butt Plate, steel grip cap and ebony forend. This, too, has a modified Westley Richards pattern stock. The second photo shows the light engraving that has been applied to the bottom metal of the Mannlicher.
