I am with rocky mtn bill. I have an old Fajen catalog that has photos of an almost identical stock, right down to that exact carving/checkering pattern.

Some body paid a lot of money for the name on a barrel. Personally, Jack Daniel's name on a full wooden barrel of his fine sipping whiskey would have been a better investment. IMO

I think irs is right about it being a Goens stock. Dale W. Goens and Bill Sukalle are both famous names in the custom gun world. If you look on Guns International or at auction records, you'll see that the price this one went for was modest for what it seems to have been.

Apparently, it isn't "what it seems to have been", not that Fajen built bad stocks.

One has to wonder what the meaning of "what" is in the comments?
I would like to see pictures from the crowd claiming this is a Dale Goens stock, that show a visual similarity? I can't find anything on google that would lead to such a conclusion.
In fact I haven't found a reference where Goens and Sukalle worked together, so if you have a link to something please share.
