I was checking out the stock again last night and noticed that the stain was coming off on my hands. I think someone else mentioned this happening to them with one of these.

I took a bit of boiled linseed oilicon and rubbed the stock down, then wiped it off with a paper towel. A lot of stain came off and the paper towel came away brown. However the color of the finish was only lightened a bit. This morning the oil is dry and when I rubbed it with a paper towel again no more stain came off.

I'm still happy with the stock but buyers be aware that it will need to have the excess stain wiped off. The oil treatment seems to have drawn it into the wood more effectively overnight.

I have no experience with refinishing or staining of wood so I don't know if too much stain was applied, it was applied incorrectly, or they didn't give it enough time to dry. Perhaps someone else here can shed some light on why it so readily came off at first.
