I am just amazed at how the steel/rust just eats away so much wood. There are brass pins holding the cleaning rod guides in place and they are pristine. This is going to be slow going for a bit as I started coaching rifle on Friday and deer season is coming fast. I did get the last steel out of it today, there is a pin which holds the brass butt plate on along with the two screws. I'll have to fill all those areas with something, probably epoxy in the screw holes and wood along the expose areas. The cleaned wood color is a lot closer in color to my repair plugs than the gahandra was. But this has a lot more repairs to be done. Here are some photos of the markings.

This is underside of the barrel, near the rear, probably worst erosion of metal. I can't really read any of it, not enough letters.
