Hi Guys, It's been a while since I asked a bone question. I'm at the oiling stage of tarting up my miroku stock, I'm adopting what I've read about one coat per day for a week ect ect, using an ultrafine scotchbrite to rub down between each coat. It's starting to look good, I've already applied a few coats of alkanet and sealed with shellac, I'm using walnut oil to finish and have applied around 8-9 coats so far. My question is at what point can I apply the london wax I have? I'm guessing you don't lay the gun up for a year until it's finished so am I supposed to strip it down for each subsequent application of oil over the next month and coming months? Thanks in advance.

I am new to this addictive sport and would appreciate some advice on choosing a first gun. So far I have looked at several new and second hand guns which after a while all seem to blur into one. On the advice of most people I have spoken to directly it seems a good / recognised maker's used gun is better value for money than a budget brand new one. Based on this I have narrowed a choice down to a couple of options which are a Beretta 682 or the Miroku MK38. Recently I tried a MK38 Trap gun with fixed chokes (1/2 and 1/2, I am told) which I found to be very good for me. It seemed to fit well and I hit a lot more than I missed with it, or maybe I just had a lucky day, however the price is a little more than I wanted to pay. So here's the question. Will any MK38 feel the same as this one I liked allowing me to hunt around for the same gun from a different place to fit my limited budget? Any advice, comments or help appreciated! thanks, Mitch4
