Marblecake English Walnut Gunstock Blank

Description

This is a Franquette English Walnut gunstock blank harvested from a walnut orchard planted in the 1930’s in northern California. Those familiar with the walnut species “Juglans regia” are aware of how rare this wood is in the gunstock market today. This oversized blank will allow for your gunstock to be laid out from either direction lengthwise, depending on your preference. There is a small shallow rough sawn area on side 2 that is guaranteed to machine away leaving ample thickness for your finished stock. A perfectly matched forearm is included measuring: 2 1/2″ thick x 3 1/2″ wide x 14 1/4″ long. The walnut has been air dried over 9 years.
