I picked up a 94/22 today in sad shape

I was at a local gunshop and saw a sad little 94/22 behind the counter.  It was missing the buttstock and the front 3/4" of the barrel/magazine tube was badly rusted due to storage conditions.  I just had to bring it home with me!  There is some pitting on the metal besides on the muzzle end.  I need to get a buttstock and buttplate to get started.  I'm going to clean up the outside as well as I can and retouch the bluing.  I figure that using bore paste on the muzzle end might restore the rifling at the muzzle which isn't too bad to begin with.  If that doesn't work, I could cut the end off behind the damage and recrown it.  The magazine would also have to be cut back.

Does anybody have a spare buttstock and buttplate?

Oh yea, a project gun. Pictures(before and after) say a thousand words.
Goodluck

Pictures will follow, this has been a busy day.

I carried a 94/22 M once and loved it! Whacked a snowshoe hare at a good distance with it too. Wish I had bought one when they were easy to get - but didn't have much $ to spare then. Good luck on the project.
