Somebody learning the trade? Seems slightly above bubba, but far below a master. The stock work on the first one is pretty darned good, far better than on the second - but still far from perfect.
First one is an EG, which if it already had a recoil pad was no real loss of a 99. Second one is a really early 1899A, hope it didn't have a lot of condition prior to be "improved".
