Naw, you're good. Just mount it on a swivel and go to town.

I agree with Dave. Looks good. Don't forget to round the corners a little.

It looks lot like mine, but I sand them a little more before staining.

I think the "school" it represents is PERFECT --- "Early Lumber" from Manhatten or Bayonne -- but maybe the wood is a little too fancy

I prefer Gaffers tape these days. It doesn't get gummy.

If that gun could talk it might say, "Do you think all this wood makes my butt look fat?"

I wish I had a camera with me 4 years ago at an auction I went to. The ad said barrels, locks, handmade guns etc... The handmade gun was built around/onto a rough cut piece of high grade pine, roughly the size of a 2X4, the butt plate was not filed, just held on with flat head wood screws. Same for the trigger guard and lock. The barrel was, in fact, held on with hose clamps.

Sounds like some chunk guns I've heard tell of.
