What we now need is a range report. See if it shoots as good as it looks. Nice restoration job.

Thx all....Ridolpho i had to sand the little arms on the top wood back so they line up with the forend grooves for the clamp that holds wood together and then i had to unfortunately cut the square piece off the butt stock bolt so the forend would slide on. Its very easy to cut the bolt with a grinder and NO need to measure because the square part eventually turns into round and where the square part ends where it meets bolt cut it off and it will be exact fit for stock and sit flush on collar. I used dark Walnut minwax stain to achieve even color and blend.

Very nice work. You appear to have got a very nice looking patina to the parts and they look very good together. Something rarely achieved by most of us when "restoring", and I include myself in that.
