I used this stuff on my TX200 and S300 - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Birchwood-Casey-Tru-Stock-Finish/dp/B01LZG42G0

 

They do a number of products to darken wood and to seal up porous wood etc. One stock was beech and the other walnut, the walnut stock needed oiling and then light sanding to fill in the porous grain but turned out very nice! It is easy to apply, you just rub it in with a finger tip and will eventually build up to high gloss which can be lightly abraded with very fine wire wool if you want a more satin finish or just don't apply too many coats! 

I've used their stuff in the past to reblue an old Diana air rifle for my nephew and was pleased with the results. Looks like a perfect excuse to visit the gun shop.

More of a justification, I suppose.
