I decided I was going to build my own gun in steel. When researching it says once a patch box has been inletted to not remove it from several sources, others say to remove it to stain under it. If I were going to inlet a steel patchbox on a early lancaster in steel I would have to remove it to brown it correct, then reinstall it after staining the stock. But some say not to remove it once its fitted correctly. Can anyone provide insight on what to do in order to inlet a steel patchbox on my gun and still be able to brown it, can it be done on the gun without ruining the stock or does it have to come off. I want a dark brown chocolate type brown job on the gun as well. Ohh the patchbox is about 8 inchs long the Issac Haines design. Please help me
