Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

I posted this rifle a few months ago - it was determined that it could not have been SCW because the rear sight had been pinned. I still do not know the history of that rifle but it sure is cool; gives my SWMBO the creeps......

I don't have one so I don't worry about that, but I remember the saying from Rumpole of the Bailey back in the 70's. He always called his wife thatCelt wrote:didn't know that.

Re: stock carvings
In some countries you could be court marshaled for defacing government property. In the USSR you could be sent to a punishment battalion ( as good as a death sentence) sent to the gulag, or summarily shot by the NKVD commissar attached to the outfit.
