The stock is a good news/bad news situation. The good news is that the apparent crack in the side of the stock is just a scratch. The bad news is that this is really a crack:
So this stock is trash. I have mostly cleaned up the rest of it. This is how it went into the oven:
I'm a little pissed that the extractor is missing:
And there is a little more rust:
So, this thing really is a 'gunsmith special'. I also cannot get the trigger to release the hammer. I haven't spent too much time on that yet, so I will see if it's something I can fix.
I do not think this was $200 well spent. I dread seeing what the second one will look like.
