Very nice. Great checkering.
I've seen those bbl inserts a couple other times.
I think you were supposed to put oil on them, something like that.
BTW: Who did the case?

Where did you find that new label? That is the original leather label, cleaned and treated ![[Linked Image from live.staticflickr.com]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55021934683_71626d8b6a_c.jpg)

CJO, I have done a few gunstocks over the last 5 decades, 2 shotgun and 2 rifle stocks. I had not very good tools to work with. If you have the interest and energy, it would be very interesting to me to see the tools you used to create this very fine product.
