I know there's great restoration guidance out there to help me out with my desire to put a great look on my inherited 1931 Win Model 12 Pump. I'd love to make the wood sing in honor of my Dad. The barrel is perfect and I don't want to touch the bluing it's fine and anything less than a factory level finish looks shoddy at best. But I'm an avid woodworker who understands wood and I know to ask from experienced/successful restorers as to what is the best method to strip then the best finish to apply to the stock and forearm. If you've done it and done it well please send me a tip or two. I love this gun. Thank you.
