Lightbulb I'm Fussy....

... and I give Eagle a B-.

I bought a pair of the "Heritage Series" when they first came out. Fit was good, but not excellent with an exposed seam at the butt. Wood color was kinda purple, but uniform on both panels and which has thankfully darkened with age. There was no oil or finish at all applied to the stocks that I could see. Shape was correct, and the checkering panels well done, but they sure wouldn't fool anyone into believing these are real "Cokes".

I sprung for the extra bucks and had Eagle put in the S&W Medallions. Properly positioned, but one of which was incorrectly rotated.

At $132 I hoped for more, but I wasn't so disappointed that I would send them back. They were actually just the ticket to tame the recoil of my heavy bullet loads in my 625 .45 Colt Mountain Gun.

Would I buy another set? Possibly, but I'm not in any hurry to do so...
