Just curious why some people have such a dislike for this being modified? I just bought one recently with a Monte Carlo stock and to me think it looks alot better then the original wood stock, told the guy about it at a gun shop today and he said I ruined a good rifle. I mean it's not like there's a shortage of these rifles, and for so many sites to have aftermarket parts for this means there's gotta be some market. Just was curious how you guys feel on this subject
