    Romanian AKM stock finish ?

    I picked up an extra stock set, minus the upper handguard, a couple months ago. It is a Romanian Guard stock (with the black stripe on the buttstock), laminated wood, and the foregrip on the lower hand guard. The stock set is much lighter in color than the dark colored one I have now, and others I've seen.I searched around for a surplus upper handguard and found one that looked like the color would match so I ordered one. Upon receiving it today I discovered it was "naked", bare wood and very dry.
    My question is, does anyone know what they used for a finish? Some type of stock oil? Tung? Linseed?
    I will post comparison pics tonight or tomorrow....thanks in advance to anyone with an idea.
    I knew something else was off, I ordered a laminated wood one and
    received a solid wood one it took 3 months to get that and a couple screws....hopefully they make it right
