Top one is a heavy refurb in a Chinese stock made to look Russian.  Bottom one is a light refurb, no BBQ and is my nicest Russian thus far.  I am planning on testing, cleaning, and photographing soon.  Trying to find some spare time as I am brewing some beer, planning on smoking some salmon I caught in Lake Superior last week, and making venison jerky drool2 
I want to be ready for May 15 Walleye opener!

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."

You know how my wife finally figured out I had more than I was letting on?  The extra gun cases I had wouldn't fit under the bed anymore and kept falling out onto her feet when she tried to push them under to make room.   :))
She was none too happy!  cry1

John, when you told me you had a 'Russian in a Chinese stock', that is most certainly *not* what I had pictured in my head.  Those are two excellent specimens!  Whoever did the wood on the Chinese did a darn fine job!  thumb1

R-M,

I did the Chinese stock.  I got the rifle from GB.  Ninja stock and all.  I sold all of the Ninja stuff, had a spare chu stock and figured what the heck.  $225 in the whole thing.  Then I traded the Russian with the chu stock for that Romanian M44 that I posted a while back.  Today, that guy said he needed some $$, so I bought it back along with the other!

Soon I will be the guy needing some $$ :o

It's always easier to ask forgiveness than permission, or so I have heard. I just keep the gun cabinet locked.  chuckles1

I really like that Chinese stock, nice job.

Looks a lot like the ghosts stocks to be honest.  You use the ole torch method?   Looks fantastic.
