I have really nothing to add to the conversation, but recently I turned a live edge walnut slab into a coffee table (I have another piece that is identical in shape waiting for me to install the legs) and after doing a bit of research found a product I thought I'd try for the finish. It's a hard wax finish based on vegetable oils, carnuba and other waxes and ingredients, made in Germany called OSMO hard wax finish. After applying it to the table, which to my eye turned out very nice, I thought this stuff may work for gunstock finishes.

It's very easy to apply and it's suggested only two coats are needed. I'm not going to get into all the particulars of application, but any thoughts on this stuff being used for a gunstock finish? Perhaps this isn't the correct thread for my question?
