i know shes in real rough shape, might clean the stock and re blue it and use it in the bush
If the bore is good, she should be a great shooter. My dad had a mint matching P14 sporter that was a tack driver. Just excellent old rifles all round.

swab the bore and shoot it as is, any stock work or metal work you do is just going to devalue the rifle

That's barely a 300.00 rifle as it is. Pretty hard to devalue it further.

For many of the posters above, the rear sight ears have been ground off - I doubt it still has the upper hand guards - it has been severely "sporterized" - not in many ways close to being original - so about nothing more can be done to it to "de-value" it as an "original" - as is, it is probably a pretty decent deer or moose rifle. There are several here, like that one is now. I have two RE made P14's here - the asterisk (star) on the receiver is noting that one is probably a Mark I* version - so look at the rear end of the barrel - around the chamber - pull the bolt back and look in there with a flashlight - the original Mark I had a totally flat rear end on that barrel - except for the extractor cutout - the Mark I * will have like a quarter circle or more groove milled around the chamber entrance - to accommodate a longer left bolt lug on the bolt.
