John,
Yes this is Greek 1903/14 rifle that somebody had a go at sporterizing.

If it was mine (and the bore is good - most Greek M-S have crap bores), I would get a cheap (<$200 on the wood, $25 set up fee and say $50 for postage) walnut stock from Richards Microfit (they offer a greek 1903 inlet option)and have a go doing the fitting work myself.

I agree it's definetly not worth a proper restock (there are plenty of genuine commercial M-S's that are in need of a proper re-stock anyway), but if you like tinkering and learning this would be a good project. As suggested a new set of sights and loping a few inches off would help to transform this into a good fun utility rifle.

George
