Before and After

[normrp]

Hi All,

About 6 months ago I posted pictures of a remingon 03-A3 that had the stock sportered but the metal was in good shape.

Here is the before picture:



Now after searching for correct parts, a replacement stock that I did the BLO and steel wool trick on (it is amazing how nice that turns out) here are the after pictures:






I had thought about selling it when I finished it, but am not sure now that I can part with it!

I would like to thank the members who answered my questions and offered advise.

Thanks again,

Norm

Beautiful....Those USGI 1903A3's are very accurate....I have one that will do 2" or better groups at 100 all day long...Just make sure you have 4-7 pounds of upward pressure on the stock tip & barrel...congrats on a nice restoration...I bet you'll REALLY regret seling it........
