Vince, the patented reinforcing rod was inserted in the butt of the stock and runs up through the wrist to reinforce the wrist area without being visible to the eye. If it was used on a gun with a skeleton butt plate then a circular impression might be visible in the wood center of the butt.

If the wooden dowel is through the head of the stock and the cheeks are checkered it's most likely a repair to the head of the stock and the checkering hides that.
