Here is a pic of my GF with the rifle (only pic I have of it lol). You can see its a sporter with an ugly beat up stock. [>:] There is almost no visable wood grain (not sure if it's just a crappy wood or crappy stain/sealer combo, we'll find out!) and the stock itself has plenty of dings and scratches as well. Overall it is a great rifle though, very accurate and a blast to bring to the range when the macho guys are out there (the ones without ear protection )
