+1 x100 on the tung oil. If you keep going you will need a pair of Oakley's just to look at it and get a super hard shell coating to boot........however they look absolutely gorgeous just the way they are too!!!.

Nice rifles with great looking wood. AA's stocks are a cut above the others.

thanks everyone. i've been eyeing these since i sold my 97kits. Both are new tx arrived a week ago and prosport yesterday. AGS is awesome to deal with, they swapped stocks for me on the TX for a 12fpe version in walnut and i picked up their last prosport in inventory.

anyone know how to remove the wax from the PP? might give it tung treatment.

Very, very nice Rodders! (Just surprised you haven't sold them again already... :wink: ).

Rodney- don't get into a hurry with Tung oil. Let each coat DRY/HARDEN for at least a day - better two days (more if you can do it) before applying the next THIN coat. Even then, it may have a "GREEN(soft) feel to it, if you know what I mean.
TUNG oil is a very good finish.

i'm giving it another day to dry more i can smell the oil. planning on going slow on this. will also use those tips you emailed me on the prosport finishing.
