Jerry,
While you were posting I was editing my post. I am not sure the stock slots are incorrect. To my eye, the forward side (toward the front of the stock) are worn but are not beveled like repros (agree that the well looks lousy). Need some more detailed photos, likewise for fake cow peelings...need to see better shots of the stock iron cup, etc. Not sure I am a believer either, but I need more convincing.
Again, respectfully
Ron
