Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles BRNO ZG-47 stock refinish project for Moose Mike.

Ok, I got in from Oklahoma City last night around midnight, got a good nights sleep and it's time to sand some of the ugly off this stock.

For this phase I wet sand. I seem to get better results getting the excess filler off the surface with this method. I start out with 320gt wet/dry paper and use a sanding block were ever possible. ALWAYS sand with the grain and rinse the paper and the surface often. Also, be very careful around the checkering!

This is pretty simple stuff. You just sand until you have have bare wood and black pores ( Thanks mathman .)

After you're finished and the wood dries, look it over for any chalky looking spots. These are somewhat hidden when the wood is wet. If you find any that means you still have filler on the outside and need to do a little more sanding.

First round of sanding results.
