I’d hunt with that one! Nice work.
I have an FN (yup, another one!) on the way, made the same year I put in my first appearance. Nice wood, but no checkering. Appears from pics that the stock was cut in front of the bolt for a receiver sight, then filled nicely. Since scoped guns are like mice around her, I may just fit a peep and call it good. Depends somewhat on the height of the comb. Probably have to replace that tiny factory bead with a cut-down Skinner too. Looks fragile.
Since I got real store-bought eyeglasses last Winter, irons are on the table again.
