I finally finished the second 1891 Argentine Mauser stock 'repair'. I'm happy with the joint; with the color match, not so much...

I did stain the light forward piece, but the wood doesn't seem to like stain...

Anyway, they both resemble Argentine carbines now, instead of pawn shop junk (well, to my eyes they do)...
