i agree with you BB
absolutely stellar work...too bad Airforce doesn’t at least offer a wood option, even if it wasn’t super well done but enough to refinish easily.

Beautiful work Jim.Greenarrow almost scared me off - his work is Great! But I will share a little. The first picture should be my P35-25, I think that is the most recent stock. Most of the wood is from church pews but the fore end cap is a piece of highly figured oak from the stump of my "killing tree". A large oak that fell over in a burst of wind due to root rot. I kept a little of the wood from the stump and made a few things out of it after it was dry. Like the stock for my Prod. Several pictures of that. Then there is the cherry stock of my P35-22 and the "church pew" stock of my P35-177. The pews were being discarded by my church so I took home some wood. I think it makes an interesting stock but the grain in the wood is not very interesting. Nothing like the "killing tree" oak.
I like making wood stocks for my gun partially so I can have something that fits me. I want a length of pull about 15 inches which stock guns never seem to have. I also have XL hands so the trigger hits about in the middle of my trigger finger instead of the tip of that finger like I prefer. These stocks are not as durable as the plastic pieces the gun came with but they fit me better and I like the looks.
