I am going to buy a Kibler’s Southern Mountain flintlock kit and have been curiously drawn to wood for the stock.
Everybody and his brother has a stock and they are so beautiful of course, but I love the fact how cherry ages gracefully over time and just think it’s pretty great looking! I live in Las Vegas and we have a ton of☀all year round and it shouldn’t take long to age naturally to a nice color. I would not be using any lye or other surface treatments for this reason, and think it’d be fun to watch it darken over time. Kind of like watching Sea Monkeys grow up but way cooler!
But was it ever actually used on a Southern Mountain type rifle? Thanks!
