Hi Gang:

There must be a time when the grain in a gunstock is just too fancy to be attractive. Like many other things in life one must know when to stop adding frills to an item. This could be a car, a house, a woman or engraving on a gun. There is a fine line between just enough and too much in any art form. I wood on E Bay that is just too well figured to hold my attention. I did find the gun that HackCW showed us was very well figured without being over the top. I have seen this happen at the local trap club with restocked guns.

Do you people have any comments on when a stock has too much grain figure to be attractive? How about a few pictures of gaudy wood grain if you can come up with an example.

TIA,

Franchi
