I believe it was a varnish of some sort but I am ignorant of the particulars.

SP barrel onto A Grade Savage Fox

Can SP barrels be fitted on to an A Grade Savage Fox?

I have an A Grade with 32 inch barrels and would like to add some shorter barrels.

Re: Looking for an A Grade 16 GA stock

Mark Larson covered up an extension for me. The job looks good, further after quite a bit of field use to my surprise it has held up well. I choose that course as a stop gap before restocking at a later date, however I have found it nice enough to push that project off for several years now.
