BrentD, thanks for the link. I will probably buy some of his cutters. I guess the reason that many people have an interest in Dem Bart is because the cutters are cheap. I had heard that gunline was not that good so I never bothered trying them. Like I said I started buying Dem Bart in the early70's and cost was very important then since I was in HS. Cost now is not so much a determining factor as longevity and quality. I've got enough good info from you guys to formulate a clear path forward. Thanks to all! Hugh L, the German gun I am working on came without a stock. I measured the fore end checkering and with these old eyes of mine came out to 28 LPI. I figured it would be metric and it may be a couple a thousands either way but I will not be recutting any of the old checkering. The gun now has a Bastogne walnut stock and will soon have a new fore end. The old fore end has some cracks and missing wood so the new one will be shaped the same but a little beefier where needed.
