How long does it take for DBU? My order was received on 9/6 and still no DBU...

Pretty! If you're pretty happy with the finish maybe use gunny paste and call it a day.

Took your advice, I was finally able to get around to ordering some Tom's 1/3. Did the black trashbag trick. Thought I was doing it wrong at first because almost nothing came out of the stock and hand guards. Eventually I saw some seeping out of the rear hand guard. Wiped it down with a some mineral spirits and repeated a few more times, I think I got most of it out of the wood. Then I applied the Tom's 1/3 wax.

After the first coat, it actually darkened up some, I was surprise because from what people were telling me, it was just going to make it have that "wet" look to it.

I ended up putting a few more coats on and it darkened up just a little more. I'm going to put one more coat on there, just to see if it makes any difference and will post up pictures once I finish with the last coat.

Personally I would never use Gunnys paste , wax etc. Nothing but BLO for me

Can't wait

You don't really have a choice unless you buy one somewhere else.

CC just hit!
Order date was 7/26.
HRA SG

[Drabnor]

SA Field grade(sticky note: would also accept a Service grade SA or HRA) Just hope to have it before the end of the year...

order mailed: 9-18-13

order received: 9-26-13

I got a call that it is on backorder, but the backorder list is way smaller than the HRA SG so I will most likely get a SA FG. Also said they are getting quicker at shipping them out so there should not be a problem getting it by January...

CC hit: 10-8-13

wow if it ships any time soon that would be awesome!

Shipped: 10-11-13

Well...

My first CMP mail-order netted a coupla minty SA Service Grades in CMP chocolate birch for my boys. My subsequent mail-order purchases for myself, my family, and my friends have, over the last coupla years, consisted of Nine (9) Service Grades, all have been USGI walnut, original park, and good bores and muzzles.

...and have netted me these Five (5) keepers.


I'm done.
