K98 in original stock..
And a big thumbs-up for that last statement, 1rstEncountr! You're learning, you're learning, and that's what it's all about.
Actually, those "plywood" stocks which the Germans made during the Second World War are most remarkably stable, if a little bit on the heavy side. They are made by the TEGO process of high-pressure lamination, a process which only has been copied in very recent years for use on rifles which are to take a lot of abuse. They are very difficult to damage..... and they look GREAT! They also have the advantages that (1) they are heavy enough to soak up a fair bit of recoil from that 7.9x57 rounds and, (2) once an action and barrel are bedded into one properly, they STAY bedded.
As always, your choice, but this old phart thinks you are looking in the right direction.
Have fun!

The AA stock isn't defacing the firearm or bubba! So long as you can return it to original you won't offend any purists LOL!
