Broken Stock

[B. Dudley]

I personally think that the gun may be a later restock. Possibly a factory restock, but I am not sure. Further evidenced by the book saying it was a straight stock. An interesting observation is that it has the later style banjo forend tip where it should have the early wedge tip.

A Wedge Key fore end with a Thistle tip is a strange marriage.

Thank you. I appreciate your insight. I do not have the knowledge about proper or improper modification issues, nor do I know the history of this particular firearm
