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

JYD, sweet! I'm still looking for one in the correct stock and not counter-bored, you got a little drool out of me with that one. :thumbsup:

I forgot to mention that this M38 is in a M38 stock, not an early stock, but still M38.

There is nothing wrong with a counterbore, it's better to have one if the rifle needed it than not have one and have a rifle with a worn out crown that keyholes every round.
