Rough 98K, what to do with it?

[Mikesm44]

Hello all. I purchased this recently and I am somewhat unhappy with the condition. It is an IDF 98k in 7.62 NATO. The previous owner was asking a good price, and he had been using it during his ownership of the rifle, the bore looked good and so I picked it up. Upon further investigation I discovered it is very aggressive pitted below the stock. I am relatively convinced that it is somewhat dangerous to shoot as it is, and so I am asking for some opinions. Would you shoot this rifle? Thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.
