Gentlemen, my experience in gunstocks is limited to walnut and whatever passes for wood on Chinese made SKS rifles. I've see plenty of pictures of gorgeous curly maple stocked rifles on this site but what do you do when they receive cuts or scrapes in the field that leave white wood showing?
My first instinct would be to cuss a blue streak and then look for a dull spoon to open the veins of my wrist. I know that dings and dent add character but white wood showing on an otherwise beautiful stock makes me cringe. The thought of taking the wood down and recreating the original finish makes me cringe even more.
