Black Beauty

[imarangemaster]

That's what I call it now, as the black walnut stock is so dark! I finally got the matching black walnut IO hand guard for my HI stock. It is ready to go into the shadow box with some of my dad's Iwo Jima mementos. It is all correct mid-war Inland except: the front sight, Type II rear sight, Type II barrel band, and sling. It shoots so well that I am not replacing the rear sight and barrel band. The stock is a long channel with an "HI" in the sling well and a seriffed "P" on the front of the grip. No sign of a crossed cannon cartouche. In the pictures in the bright sunlight, the stock looks redder and lighter than it really is. From 10 feet away, it looks almost black in reality.
