I'm using some I have had for years; not sure about the newer blend.

The flash makes they wood look a lot blonder then it actually is. I do have some rich mahogany from when I refinished an sks, it’s a really nice tint, however as I have a folder it will depend on whether or not they included the darker plastic cheek rests. Also I refinish a lot, don’t ever wanna loose wood. Do yourself a favour and use a stripper agent.

Again once we get them next week this thread is intended to be a resource and troubleshooter for all things 81 related, hardly a useless thread but okay

I think he was referring to the main T.I thread, this thread on the other hand will be quite useful and will probably be stickied

Every Type 81 thread is destined to derail, it is what the prophecy says.

I have a Romanian PSL parts kit, I know caliber is off but I will have a look to see if that wouldn't be too much of a project to change the look...
