It is. I have cleaned the action, glued and internally pinned the stock head, and refinished the wood without grinding and excessive sanding. We will see if the stock repairs hold as they should. I would not shoot heavy artillery loads through it.

I did some recheckering. Jeff could further hide the old cheek pin bolt holes with multiple coats of paint blended to match the wood and applied with a fine brush.
Hiding the break through the grip is a problem and I have done what I can. Jeff or you could do a little more finishing work on it now but regardless it's ready for pheasant season.
