Screws are all rusted stuck fairly good. I'm not sure I'm getting this stock off. The front pin will not budge with a bench vice either. The good? news is that the stripped screw won't be a problem, because the wood is so soft the plate should just fall out.
I was planning on making a cut out and replace repair in that spot anyways.
Based on the rust from underneath the missing handguard, and the soft condition of the wood, I am assuming the underside probably looks like the surface of the moon. My barrel will need to be welded or replaced, if the action remains serviceable. The bore is pitted but sharp, and the crown is recognisable.
It would be nice to actually know what the barrel looks like before I jump to conclusions.
