FIrst I would strip that vet applied goop off the stock. Typical orange shellac
or similiar treatment. I have had dozens of guns over the years with this
finish. Not wartime. As for the repair, it can be redone and made to look better but with the cut in the middle like that - always visible. The problem is that the
repair was done with a dark glue or the added surface coat interacted with the glue.
