    I have stained and cleared them.

    This is after carefully stripping all the old material off, usually fine grit sandpaper and TLC.

    I like using automotive grade epoxy clear.

    You could prep and prime them if you wanted to use solid colors. I have never done it on stocks, but I have on other wood, furniture, etc.

    Just hit it with some 300-400 grip paper to rough up the surface a little so the paint will adhere well.
