I bought an 870 and it came with the plastic furniture. Got ahold of solid wood stock & forearm sanded them down to get them natural color. Like how it came out.

It looks good! What finish did you use?
I started to sand down a spare forearm today to try to see if i can get the look before i take on my Wingmaster's furniture.

I didnt use any stain. Just sanded it down and cleaned it very good and put clear semi-gloss

I've used red oak because I have a thing for dark and red hues. If use an epoxy mix but a easier and just as pretty is an oil based polyurethane clear coat.

I like those colors to. I'm going to try and do the forearm a dark color and the checkering a dark red. Hope it turns out ok but if not its ok its on a spare forearm.cv0lv0g0 wrote:I've used red oak because I have a thing for dark and red hues.

That looks nice. Was that a Wingmaster fore-end or an Express one?

It believe it is off an express. Some one gave it to me so I figure I would try it on this one before I take on my wingmaster's furniture.Synchronizor wrote:That looks nice. Was that a Wingmaster fore-end or an Express one?
