My Custom Hogues & M1A Stock Checker/Carve

[Gaff]

I'll try to attach a couple pictures of two projects. One, the grips, were done a couple of years ago in one weekend. The other is under current engagement, and has about 50+ hours in it.

The M1A National Match I've had since the 90's, and my ex-Army son said I should customize it. So...here is the mostly complete work. Finishing the mirror image on the reverse side, then six coats of hand buffed oil finish goes on the walnut.

I almost went blind on the M1A checkering.
