Cant even tell you how embarrassed i am right now. Im sanding the forearm on my GPR and theres this dark blackish color line running down the middle of the area i am sanding. I am like, Damn that stain soaked in deep! I go back to sanding, go to 80 grit sand, sand sand, still there!
Took a better look in better lighting. It was friggin wood grain!
AW POOP! Did you take off so much wood that you're having contour problems?

I did the same thing with the grips off my 1851 Navy. Couldn't understand why I couldn't get that one spot stripped and looking like the rest of the grip.
Like you, luckily, I stopped before I went too far.
That's why I never stain a walnut stock. The wood is too pretty, even straight grained walnut. IMO that dark spot is 'character'. Tru-oil, Linspeed and even just satin finish polyurethane (what I use) seems to bring out the grain. But being that you already stained your stock, be sure to let the stain dry completely before you seal it. Don't rush it.
