I bought a grab bag of ebony from Woodcraft. It had enough ebony for probably 10-12 forends and grip cap inserts. It cost just a couple dollars more than 1 pc from Brownells.......DJ

Jeffe,

Its pretty bad when I can't remember who I sent you to..........must be the reaction of me spending money on the new belt sander.....you know I have to get therapy when I spend money.

Try Jim Preslik at Preslik's gunstocks, Chico CA. He usually has some in stock along with some of very nice blanks. Call him though; he don't answer his email often enough.

Look on ebay. Sometimes they have real good deals. I buy off Ebay all the time and have never had a problem. People like Chitswoods, lindaswoods, and West penn hardwoods come to mind.

I've spent a litte time hanging around sawmills in Central Africa and have always wondered why some of the more luxorious woods don't end up as riflestocks. For instance, is Padauk a wood appropriate for riflestocks? How about Madagascar Rosewood?
