Custom stocked Sterlingworth 20g.
Here are some pics of a recently completed Sterlingworth Ejector 20g.
A local gentleman purchased the gun, but with a broken stock that was also poorly refinished. But the gun had good original barrel blue and a lot of original case color.
He wanted it restocked to match the same exact dimensions as his hunting gun. A Piotti King Royal. High modern drops, 14.5" length of pull and cast for right had shooting. He wanted to to be a cut above the typical sterling worth by using fancy american walnut, a round knob grip, full cover forend checkering and checkered cheek panels.
Also, the trigger guard, forend metal and safety button were polished out and Nitre Blued.

Very nice, Brian. Both you and the owner have good taste. Just enough "extra" to be tasteful, but not gaudy. Nice job on the cheek panel checkering. The borders are perfectly uniform.
