Thanks for everyone's kind words. FINALLY done and I'm 75% happy with it. Started with subpar wood so the uneven staining detracts from the overall picture. It is however 100% functional and custom-made to fit. It was an exercise in patience for sure and I'm happy that I finished it, had many times considered abandoning it just way too much work for an amateur. Kudos to all the pro gunstock makers out there, you deserve more credit and money...
