Hi All.

Due to a prior crack, and someone sanding the wrist down during the repair, there's no checkering. I've got the stock with a friend to checker it again, but we're stumped on what would be a good panel to put back. It's a very thin and long wrist.

If you can share some examples of small panel checkering for a SLE, that would be very helpful.

There's another Field around. 16ga hammergun, blackpowder proof. It would be fun to have it along with the SLE.

The wood is now done, thanks to a barter with a friend. I blued his barrel, and he recut the checkering.



The barrel is done. It's on the darker side, overall, but the lines in the Fine 3-iron Oxford are discernible. An image for it is over in the gunsmithing forum.

It weighs 6 lb. 11oz. May be a bit short for me, but at least it's usable again, looks a good bit better, and will serve someone well as a shooter SLE. Little bit off the face, which a simple shim will take care of for now.

Well done!!

Thanks Mark. Thank you as well for helping me have the opportunity to see what kind of potential it had.

Wow that is a cool 16
