Learning curve? There was a time in my youth when some custom stockers were putting stain in checkering to darken it and set it off from the wood of the stocks.

I've watched the RBL series for a few years to include finished guns offered by CSMC and photos and personal examination of those privately owned. As Researched stated, problems must have been on early guns. Mark USMC Retired
