Howard509-670-7553 is the best way to contact him.
If you are thinking of having him do work, you will not be disappointed.
Gentlemen,
It is really great to hear people say positive things about services and products they have received.
There was a positive note about Gracy's Travel, and now about the work of our friend Chic.

<Bearhunter>Thanks to all. And, yes I've seen photos of his talents and do desire to enlist his services for some stockwork. I keep coming back to those photos. Something just catches with his style and attention to detail.
I have noticed that his stocks are a bit dark in color for english walnut. I do very much prefer a darker colored stock, but was wondering if he uses a a stain added finish? Most of the english blanks that I've seen and own, are more naturally light or blonde.
Thanks again,
Bearhunter

CustomstoxBear hunter, I don't use a stain on my stocks. I have done that in the past but it is real pain to finish them the way I like with a stain and if you get a scratch it is difficult to repair without losing the color. Some photos I posted recently of a pair of rifles I am taking to Africa were of very dark walnut.
And the number that Howard gave you 509 670 7553 is the easiest way to reach me.
