The chicom stocks (to me don't look good refinished or not).. I dont like the wood they use..... keep the soviet stock as is... at least for a short time... I really like the laminates,and am curious if they are trickier to refinish or not.
 
This one is refinished,I removed the varnish finish,used 0000 steel wool to smooth it and put 3-4 coats of tung oil on it,Much nicer feeling to it now.

Then i removed the finish on a spare russian stock i had,sanded it with 100-200 grit to remove any oils it had inbedded in the wood and gave it a quick camo job

yummm.....drool..me likee the tung oil idea!......and who knows maybe ghost camo for the chicom:)
I do agree with the comment about the chinese stock...weird wood and it's crying for paint.I only want to do this paint thing once{not every other year like my deck} is it an automotive paint that can be used? And I'll assume that after tung oil no other sealer/varnish is required? Thanks for the comments:)
