Mauser Stock Cartouche

[Aragorn243]

I have an RC and it came with the nasty red shellac which I removed and hidden under it were faint but clear eagles and an H stamp, I didn't sand it, I citristriped it. I don't think the Russians sanded them excessively but it probably was part of the process. That deep gouge looks to have smooth edges right up to the gouge. Had it not been heavily sanded, I would think that would be a lot more frayed in appearance.

There is another huge scrape on the other side of the stock next to the receiver that has been smoothed down. I will post a pic when I get home for your better judging.
