John;
Very nice gun. I also would opt to have the original stock repaired. Over all you'll spend less on a repair than a restock and there are guys out there who can repair a stock and you will not be able to tell. I know as I had a beautiful straight grip DHE 20 that was cracked in half at the wrist. Had it repaired and I defy anyone to see the repair. PM me if you would like to see the before and after. Also, Delgrago did'nt always stamp his work on the frame if he refinished a gun. Your gun does look as if it has been fired. The circular marks on the standing breach are a telltale sign. Put the old girl back together and enjoy shooting her.
