I have searched on here and checked with CMP and Garand sites and cant really find a good answer. I was able to get a Garand last year from CMP that included one of their new stocks. It is not oiled at all. I would like to rub her down with BLO but saw a video from an "expert" on youtube that suggested sanding in the first couple of coats as opposed to just rubbing it in, letting it soak, wipe off excess and repeat. Any thoughts on this vs sanding in? Again, I am only speaking of a new stock as opposed to one that was stripped and redone. I also have a 1903A3 with a new stock that I would do the same thing with. Thanks in advance.
