Thanks for the heads-up.

Band looks good. The point to watch for is a smooth curve at each side of of the hole, and homogeneous metal with wall not noticeably thicker at the bottom - the guide was machined in place, NOT an added tube.

The stock is what it is, and is not reversible - that said, complete early stocks don't show up often - IMHO that one should be used to upgrade a buggered 92/96.
