I don't really know much about this particular model of weapon but I'm sure forum members will be able to tell us more about this example.
First thing I noticed: the rivets.

Those cuts that you mention are there to make it easier to put the leather on. You don't need to take the time to mold the leather if you make those cuts. The cheap repros all have them.
When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

Would you mind posting a pic so I can see what you are referring to? Thanks.

I think they're talking about the stock from the eBay link in Post #30. - Bob
