Here she is after the stock removal. It had a thin wrist so I had to leave most of that alone. The upper wrist was fat. I bent the tang down and inletted it deeper into the stock. A lot of extra wood on the forearm was removed. The trigger, guard, and entry pipe had to be re-inletted. Sides of the stock had a bunch removed all the way to the muzzle as did the buttstock. The lock was cleaned and some internals polished up, and the trigger had to be reworked. First coat of finish went on and I could see scraper marks that I didn't want to see...Back to scraping and then burnishing...refinishing. All in all pretty happy with the way it came out.
