I was inspired by 257heaven project so I ordered the same sponges and paint.
this was a borden stock that I painted black and tried my hand with the sponges. Taped off the recoil pad and it turned out pretty good. Thanks for the help 257heaven!!!!
Quick question. Any issue with the sponge paint filling in the checkering on the grip or fore arm of the Borden stock? I have a Pacific Rimrock stock (precursor to the Borden stocks?). It has really nice, fine, grippy, checkering. I have avoided painting it because I did not want to fill in the checkering.
