Boyd's Walnut stocks

[J_Hensley]

I have purchased a fair share of Boyd's laminate stocks. I like the shape of them, and their pricing isn't too bad. I think I would like to get a Walnut stock from them, but I'm worried about the quality.

I haven't really seen any examples of Walnut stocks from Boyd's. Can any of you guys share pictures, if you have a Boyd's walnut stock?

Any opinions?

The ones I have used are equal in quality as his laminated ones. They are just a plain piece of Walnut with no figure.
I trust the strength of walnut over laminate in the grip area. Never had a Boyd's break but did on some F class stocks by another manufacture.

Several years ago I sent them a walnut blank to use with their pattern on a .22 The inletting was disappointing. I had to do quite a lot of work that I wasn't expecting, and I'm not an expert inletter.
So just my for what it's worth.

They do offer a few different grades of walnut, it can get rather pricey.
