Hello Martin,
I was wrong, not a 50/50 mix of BLO and turpentine, just normal "Leinölfirnis"!!!!!!!!
That is double boiled linseed oil with addition of dryers.
You can mix that with turpentine, but it works as is also real good.
BTW, will we meet at Kassel?????????
As for the M986 carbine, it feels and handles real good, weighting 3650g it is lighter than a K98k, but the rubber butplate and longer butt stock make it a pleasent shooter.

Thanks Chris.
I used linseed oil on the stock of my M39.
Works real good, but it dries a bit slow.
About Kassel....
When it's up to me I'll be there on Thursday Chris.
I don't think that a day off will be a problem.
Every year we drive over with a few members of our gunclub.
At this moment we do not know what day we will drive over to Kassel.
I'll let you know asap.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Martin

I hope so too Chris.
I've got some range time coming up next Thursday so I can start asking around who is going to Kassel and more important....when.
I'll keep you posted on this one.
Thanks for the "put the stock in the car" tip.
I'll keep that one in mind for next year.
