Never heard of one. To the best of my knowledge all T/C Hawken stocks were/are American walnut. Are there any markings? Can you post pictures?

Thanks for posting the pictures. That one looks really nice. I've always been a sucker for a gun with pretty wood. That one would have grabbed me for sure. I have to agree with dvdegeorge though. I'll bet it's the natural grain of that stock blank.

I saw one at a gun show. It wasn't that expensive and it was in the box. I wish I'd bought it.
