I have been friends with GunnyUSMC for sometime and he encouraged me to join over here at The High Road. Some of you may have seen some of Gunny's posts on stock repairs. I try to go down and visit at least once a year and I usually bring a bunch of rifles with stock issues. While visiting this last march,Gunny and I did some trading and I ended up with this filthy Vetterli rifle. I collect military surplus arms and tend to like weird and unusual stuff. Italian Vetterli rifles being one of the things I collect. Gunny told me he never really cared for this rifle and bought it at a pawn shop 7 years ago and did nothing to it. Here is what the rifle looked like when I got it.
