    Thats nice. Are you going to re-do the chequering on the fore-stock (Im guessing there used to be some).

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    It doesn't appear that this stock ever had any chequering on the fore, I must admit I am tempted to get it done. The rest of the stock is far to tidy and original for it to have been sanded down to remove it. The chequering on the pistol grip is very nice.
    Itching to shoot it that's for real

    Some European manufacturers up to that period didnt put checkering on the forend. It started with Mauser in the 1930's who didnt checker the forend of their cheaper models, continued with others like Husqvarna etc.

    To have checkering only on the pistol grip is perfectly kosher.
