I tried some raw linseed oil on the stock, rubbing by hand and with a rag. Looks better after one session. Checkering is better but still has old oil and dirt in it.

Took the action out of the stock and the bluing below the woodline is excellent. Will post pics soon of the proof marks below the wood. Nice to see matching serials in the magazine well and stock barrel channel. Only thing that doesn't match is the bolt shroud. The cocking piece does match. Haven't looked at the firing pin yet.

Boy this rifle is light! So different than a full stocked 29" military mauser.
