I’m not a wood person. Are these AYA butt stocks actually walnut? The first image is from a AYA Yeoman. Their inexpensive non ejector double in 12ga. The second butt is an AYA No. 3 non ejector. And the the third pic is AYA No.4 ejector.

Mark does a beautiful upgrade on stocks. His "inking grain", the British term, takes a extension or plain grained stock and makes the entire gun stock look better and work better. His art work goes well above that. A hundred times better, than simple adding a recoil pad and a thousand times better than adding a white line recoil pad. I was looking for a reason to buy a small milling machine from Grizzly. I just ordered a small DRO Metal lathe from them to play with when I retire. Right now I could do it with a drill press and a milling table setup I have. But as a friend once said, you can never have too many 220 volt tools. And with a small milling machine I might make a couple hit and miss engines or a few stationary engines. Not going to retire soon, but I better have things to do once I do, because the sofa has not hold for me. I'd rather be making things, fixing things or breaking things.
