yup. a dupe. But yes, saw it at the shot show. fantastic color, fit and finish.

will it fit on a Saiga conversion AK?

[vjf915 456]

Not without modification. I believe the handguard needs a retainer, not sure about the stock.

You'll need a gas tube with the upper handguard bracket and then a bolt on retainer for the lower piece.

 

There have been reports of the stock not mating up well with the tang.

in knowing the look you are going for I think this is a great option... also gets you 3 US made parts which is a nice bonus..

[david8613 69]

what is so special about laminate? stronger? looks better idk... i wish they made this with a donkey grip, its different, i emailed and got a response they at this time no, but it looks like they are branching out thats good...

[Pew Pew Plates 358]

I just prefer the appearence of laminate.

I just received a set of unfinished timbersmith. I wanted the premium red but I could never figure out how red they would be... Ill post a pick when I get done staining them. I am putting them in an Arsenal SLg21

[david8613 69]

sounds good cant wait to see...

 

glennp is that yours that is really nice, eactly the look i want, i bet in person she looks even better!

 

chris how long did it take to get your timbersmith wood, and where did you order it from?

[david8613 69]

anyone know who has the timbersmith wood in premium red, i called a couple places and either they are sold out or still on order....

[Pew Pew Plates 358]

Unfortunatly that is not mine, but I may refinish my SAR and match it to that. Its too awesome...

Well I finished the unfinished stock set I bought from timbersmith.

 

This was pretty easy to do. I used a low gloss tung oil, was not sure how it would look if it was too shiny.

 

let me know what you think of the color.

Came out real nice!

[vjf915 456]

I think that the color came out real nice. My personal taste, I think they look better with a higher gloss finish than that, but I think the color is great.

I'm having an Ironwood Design stock set made for my SGL21. Looking forward to receiving it and finishing it in the next couple of weeks. Not sure if you guys know about this guy but he's pretty cool. His name is Matt and he's out of San Jose, CA.

the more I looked at it, i do agree it would look better with a high gloss finish. It looks even duller in person. I just put a coat of high gloss on it. ill post when its done.

 

Better look nice because there is no going back now. :icon_lol:

[david8613 69]

how did ya make out with the gloss?

[Cavalier1979 0]

 

 

 

Here are some close ups.

 

If you are curious how I got this color.

 

I first rubbed some wine colored dye by RIT, then stained it with red mahogany and then a couple of coats of High gloss Tung oil..

 

used 000 wool pads to smooth it out after each coat
