Here are three Daisy rifles. Two 753’s and one 853. The 853 stock is made of Elm. One of the 753’s is of Tiger Maple. The other is “I believe” made of Honey Locust. It’s a wood I am unfamiliar with. Heavy, bright in color, oily, and has a different grain pattern. Check out the end grain. (last picture in the center) Also, It appears to me that all three of these stocks came from different manufacturers. All machining is quite different. The Elm stock is by far the thickest. Followed by the Tiger Maple stock. Then the Honey Locust. Different in every way. Checkout the pictures. Any other opinions on the Honey Locust? I’m not settled on it yet.
