    I am actually going to redo the stocks. I have been a licensed gunsmith since 1972 and usually I have to unBubba guns that were screwed with. Repairs to the bored out holes in the stock is an easy fit. The rear upper handguard are a little thin to be fixing those holes. It was just easy to replace them with better condition ones. Those old stocks I usually soak them in hot water with wood beach to get the hundred years of grease, dirt and paint off of the stock. Then I will steam out the dents. I will leave any ordnance marks along. Once cleaned and fix the American Black Walnut stock will come out quite nice.
