I recently picked up a very accurate Browning BAR Mark II Safari, 1993 vintage; the forend has a few cracks which I successfully repaired with cyanoacrylate, but I got a good deal on a new checkered but unfinished factory forend. Any suggestions on how to stain and finish to match the awful shiny epoxy or whatever color and finish on the stock? I know I could just use poly urethane or somesuch thing, but I was hoping someone could give me tips as to how to mimic Browning stain color and finish material??
Thanks ahead of time as always
Rick
