As for the finish and what I plan to do. I go back and forth on this issue. For right now, at least, I plan to leave it ...

Thanks for the input everyone. Here is a close up of " 'shield shaped' escutcheon at the toe of the stock". It looks like a piece of tape. So, yes, likely from a past civilian owner. I am leaving it there, at least for now. It ahs been there a long time and might mean something. To me, it ...
