This is a photo of the hacked off stock. To be generous I am going to assume that the stock was broken and the person who cut it off had to make it two inches too short because of where the stock broke.

This also gives you an idea of what the barrel is looking like after sanding off the worst of the damage.
Remember...This rifle has no collector value. So I didn't hurt it by doing the restoration and conversion.
