Done by forum member John boy. Before. During. After. I need to retake the pics in sunlight.

What a phuggn mess. Why ruin a nice stock?
Just my opinion only.
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

Just my opinion only. It's still the same stock. Color doesn't matter to a critter.

Hideous. Is this an April Fools joke?
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Is that an Anti-theft paint job so nobody will steal it?

The stocks I have painted look like warmed over Turkey Chitt, and I think they appeal to me more than the above Yellow, Black, and Red. I am prepping another to paint now, hopefully it comes out a little better. Rio7

Just my opinion only. It's still the same stock. Color doesn't matter to a critter. doesn't bother me.....I would want the colors to blend into each other ....I wonder if he could do that......but looks good....bob

I’m waiting for one done up in the infamous rainbow pattern. Not mine, of course.

DF I suggested to him that if I had another that I would consider the 7 colors of the rainbow in order. Maybe reverse order on the other side. The stock sorta reminds me of some toned Morgan silver dollars that I used to own. Still got this one.

No. You don't. If I were John Boy, I'd have sworn you to secrecy. Hey, in all seriousness - if it makes your socks go up and down, that's all that counts.

Folks all have their owns preferences. Always preferred olive drab myself.......drab and boring as it is.
For John Boy.....always give a customer what they want.......good job!

Will it kill a fellow? or venom lack? It's a 6.5-06 Ackley Improved. Killed lots of game with the cartridge, but this rifle is new. Stock is old, but I killed my first antelope with a different 6.5-06AI in this same stock when it was black. So I have to wait until this fall.
