My dad and I are having grips made out of these blanks by Rowen Custom Grips for our Ruger Redhawk's that are going to Hamilton Bowen for his kodiak conversion.

Maple stocked built by Hal Hartley in 1952. My poor photography skills cannot do this stock and rifle justice.

I can see where personal tastes come into play here. There are a couple of these that, for my tastes, are down right ugly. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

I don't have a picture of the the blank but here's one built with a decent piece of Turkish Circassian. IMO, there isn't one pictured here I wouldn't be proud to own.

This is a pre-carve just as I got it back from Charlie Grace. I made a pattern stock for a CZ rimfire sporter and Charlie machined the blank to my pattern. Dick

Joel, It's actually nearly done. This is a pic taken just before I started to finish it. It is currently out to Kip Wood (Central Michigan Gunsmithing) for checkering. Dick

This is what it looked like after the first coat of finish. Dull areas are where it needs more finish. I hope to post pice of the completed rifle soonish. Dick
