Hey guys and girls!
So when I got back in May from my deployment I went to Anniston, AL and picked out my very own M1 and here is the video of what I experienced!

No problem jersey glad you like it! gonna look on here and see what is the best way to refinsh my stock to give it that darker, semi gloss GI look. I will make a video of that process as well

Mae sure to completly strip the stock before adding oil finish, otherwise it may turn out blotchy. I also recommend a stain before applying a oil finish on these commercial stocks, otherwise they are usually fairly light in color.

Thank you for the advice, can you recommend a stain?
