I would be more tempted to hunt up a nice set of sporter wood, made with cheekpiece and snobble forend and just do that. I had one of those come by that looked just about the same and had a perfect bore...I turned the barrel off and sold it for a profit while parting the action out. I wouldn't try to refurbish that one. The flash hiders are scarce and maybe $200CDN if I could find one here and then may not be right.
