Nice one. I just saw those parts I think at sarco. Not sure about the butt stock but be sure and take off the fore stock first. Some times they are just loose. Sometimes the washer is missing.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

You'll need a very long flat head screwdriver. I got mine at Home Depot. One that looks impossibly big. Probably the biggest one they have. Take the former off FIRST, then tighten the butt stock by opening up the oiler hole in the butt plate, remove a washer in there with a coat hanger or something, then tighten the screw. If you don't need the screwdriver, return it to the store.

Someone mentioned a mosin bayo would work for that.
