    1917 ShtLE Restoration Help

    What hell hath I wrought? So it starts off simple with a genuine Bubbatized 1917 ShtLe Mark III* and apparently a hell of a lot of naivety. Somehow I had convinced myself that I could buy all the parts and the rifle would just come together. Well it doesn't take a Rhodes Scholar to see where this went. It went so well until the furniture came in the Numrich box I had become so accustomed to seeing at my step. Guys I thought I knew full well what it would take to fit this rifle into the said furniture. Turns out I had know idea that the furniture would require so much "customization". This is my first project and I truly need some help from some of you that may have dealt with Numrich stock sets specifically with the fore end and the stock itself. I would really like to know if my wood will require the amount of sanding that I believe or if I may have the wrong stock. I thank y'all in advance.
