That is AWSOME! waders!!
I just shelled out extra cash for a 10/22 because my daughter wanted pink & ruger now sells pink laminate stocked 10/22's. This never would have crossed my mind, fantastic!!!
It looks great!!
if you get a chance could you get some pictures of it with good outside lighting?
what a great idea.

Now go buy her some of that feminine camo, with the pink and purple in it, way cool for a 9 year old.

Sorry for the gratuitous bump, but a friend who is not a member wanted to see these pics, and I am at work and don't have them uploaded photobucket.

Looks great. I can see I am a bumbler when it comes to refinishing stocks. Only 3 weeks ago my 10 yr old daughter and I sprayed her .223 a bright purple Krylon with white stripes. Not a good job, but she was happy!
Good job keeping yours shooting.

I took the easy route and ordered a purple/grape/white McM Remington 700 MR for my Daughter when she wanted a purple stock on her 1st deer rifle.

nothing wrong with purple, especially for your daughter. I'm not scared of putting color to guns...I've put together a few.

Looks great....and as said.. it was done by Dad special just for her...can't put a price tag on that.. much more value to her than if you had just gone out and bought one..

Amazing contrast from the grain in the wood with the purple dye. I must say it has a pleasing look for a purple rifle. Only question is does it shoot well with the modifications you made.
If you can catch or kill it I can cook it.

Only question is does it shoot well with the modifications you made. It has never been shot at long range, but at +/- 50 feet, it shoots just as well now as it ever did with a barrel band.
