Interesting... I've always like that style of stock. How long is the barrel?

Gorgeous!  All it needs is a schnabel fore end   and you've got it.

The barrel is 19" long.
I made the snobble from a Mauser end cap/bayonet lug.

Nice work on both the stock and the schnabble.
I like to repurpose parts and always look for the usefulness on all kinds of old parts or for how they can be adapted to other projects.
I enjoyed working a P14 trigger bow to some type 99 bottom metal for a project rifle one time.
No matter how hard I tried to improve the 99 trigger bow, I just couldn't manipulate it for a pleasing appearance.
