WG,
If you look at the pic of the side showing the tang of the frame, you see the upper has a curve to it that continues past the screw under the middle of the toplever. If you straighten it from about the screw on back, it will look and work out much better for a higher (modern) comb straight grip stock. If you don't, it will have a curved look to the upper line of the grip and it will have a large/deep "gullett" in the grip to comb area. It's a subtle change that will make the gun look so much better. But when you do the upper tang, you have to also straighten the toplever and raise the bottom frame tang as well. All of this can be bent easily. Heat it with a propane torch if you like, but it will bend without heat.
