What, are you a pimp now 
OOOO PRETTY!!! Nice and shiny!
Have you shot it yet? Betcha can't wait!
Nice rig. I wonder when you'll sell this one? Don't say you won't, because you have sold 2 (that I know of) within a year (Guide Guns that is). Maybe I'll start another poll...

Won't be sellin James. I screwed up and sold one to Jasonsmack in Sask. I realized the error of my ways and bought another one three months ago. Sold that one Monday only to upgrade to the stainless.
............Bartell thats the Duplicolor stock. As in Duplicolor bedliner.

Did you really paint the brand new stock? My monitor isn't that great, I thought the picture was just "dark". Do you have any other pictures close up to the stock/action. That is a neat idea.
Yeah, I know you'll keep this one. I can't wait to see some successful hunting pictures of it.

.................I know of two Guides in Alaska that use bedliner. Its a tough weather proof and nonabrasive material. I guess if some hotshot gunsmith from BC applied it you would approve??
Has nothing to do with turd polishing. I am just weather proofing a wood stock with a vinyl polymer. Its not about the looks. Its sealed and its all weather.

why destroy a nice walnut by spraying bedliner?

Do I think it's a good idea? Yup!
Would I have done it? Nope.
I would, however, have boght a used beat to hell stock or one of the unfinished 50 dollar replacements and painted it. Then sold the new walnut on ebay (Last set I saw went for 140 USD)

I think that weather proofing a tightly grained walnut stock has limited value, but it's your gun, and you don't need to justify your decision to anyone. The work was nicely done as far as I can tell from the pics.

.................Well, its a stainless Guidegun with an armoured stock. My first Guidegun sold in a day, the one on Monday sold in 10 minutes. I am not worried about resale as this one isn't going anywhere.
...........Also as for the resale value, where have you been?? Have you seen the junk being sold here lately??
