That 95 the son has above had a refinished buttstock that displayed a LOT of proud metal around the upper and lower tang. I had a refinished original 1894 buttstock in my shop and in about 1/2 hour fitted it to this rifle. Looks a bit better. And yes we retained the original wood.

"Come, shall we go and kill us venison?
And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
