Strip the dirt and grime from the stock with Formby's Furniture Cleaner [it is a green minty liquid in plastic bottle] on a soft diaper/cloth and soft toothbrush in the checkering. Then a handrubbed coat of Renaisance paste wax [available at Brownell's ,it is expensive... approx. $20 but a little goes a long way, lasts forever and worth it. Good for the metal as well. You'll be amazed at how good any gun will look with just this simple process and without altering a collectible. WARMEST REGARDS JERRY
