Here is my 17-4 shooter

Lets try this. Beak

Hopefully this image is OK. Here is my 27-2 and 17-4. Beak

I'll have to try that. I normally strip everything, recut the checkering, stain, and then finish. This 27-2 above was purchased for $240 (5 years ago). A polishing wheel, wax, and rebirth of grips provided me with a real shooter that's pleasing to the eye. Just wish the grips had more detail. Beak

Art, This should give you a better idea of what I was working with. Beak

Hope this photo came out alright Art. This should be the "after" one. This started out as a "beater" model 65. Beak

Art, I have done this many times for my friends, and have not had any problem using Tru-oil. I recut checkering, stained, and finished with Tru-oil like normal. Beak

Gary - an excellent video. Thanks very much for posting. Beak
