Hi Gang:

For some reason I dislike light coloured wood that is often called French Walnut. I have an older Sako rifle and an older SKB shotgun that have these almost blonde stocks on them.

The SKB is so light that I plan to restock it with some claro. I know that this is a an extreme measure but it must be done!

To me, a gun with a light coloured stock as like having an affair with an ugly girl: it is fine until one of your buddies sees you with her!

Any thoughts about the above comments?
