This is a set of Ironwood Designs FAL furniture I bought for one of my Imbels.



Black walnut with a Tung oil finish. Many coats of oil and light scuffings between coats with 0000 steel wool left me with a finish that is like glass. I got the full set including the pistol grip, but I'm going to use a U.S. polymer pistol grip instead.

Even if you're doing that matching kit to look original, keep Ironwood in mind for one of your other kits. I love the black polymer/fiberglass stocks on the FALs, but the walnut looks really sharp.

I have been trying to find a couple more receivers to finish off my kits. IIRC, there is supposed to be a new FAL receiver by Dan Coonan coming out soon. I have one built DSA and 2 bare Imbel receivers. I need 2 more, so it's probably going to be DSA or Coonan as my only choices.
