Default GHE .410 another landfill story

After reading the story of the "landfill .410" in Parker Pages I decided to ask for advice from more knowledgeable members than I. Mine is a somewhat similar story which I won't go into at this time. My real question is: Should I touch up this wood. It is worse than the pictures show which are bad enough. I was told the little gun was stored in a gun case and extreme heat and moisture lifted the finish. It is gone in some areas and shows "orange peal" in others. The worst area is the butt which may have to be re-cut. The rest of the checkering looks good to me and would best be left alone I think. As can be seen the metal is in very good condition and will be left as is. Any ideas?
