Yes, the company who did the conversion cut the stocks just behind the rear barrel band. I don't know the name of the company in Canadaicon that did the conversions.It still has the original sights. I came across an old advertisement that listed the Schmidt Rubin 30-30 conversion for $29.95. Kind of surprising as I believe an Enfield sporter could be had for less.
Anyhow, I removed the varnish or whatever it was. I think it was just applied over the original finish because once I removed it the rifle looked a whole lot better. So much so that I am just going to give it a couple of coats of BLOicon and leave it at that. I'm not trying to make it look like a new rifle and this way the overall look of the rifle will match.
