I’m debating it, I could go either way. I think there is probably some figure to that stock hidden under there.
Also, for being an 1899 gun and having its barrels cut, it doesn’t look like it’s been messed with other than that. Every single screw on it is still in time. I’m guessing it wouldn’t hurt to have action cleaned.
