Need advice on re-checkering stock - 04/18/09 02:01 AM
I recently picked up a nice side lock marked ANC.ETABL PIEPER HERSTAL, On the Barrel is the horseman with Bayard underneath.
The gun is in great condition with the exception of the checkering. Someone took a really nice stock and sanded on the checkering. In some places the lines are visible but not raised. In other places it is completely gone.
Would it be worth having the stock recheckered? Would the cost exceed the value of the gun?
I have checkering tools and have touched checkering up. This seems beyond my skill level.
Any suggestions?
