Wow, those are some nice fence boards. If you'd get that gun off of 'em we could see 'em better.

who did the checkering? how miny lines per inch? Don't know (hope the owner will answer) but if you save that picture of the fore end to disk and then zoom in, you can appreciate that borderless checkering work better... Do click the original picture and browse through the album -- some NICE work on that rifle, to say the least! John
