I know what you’re thinking. Just remember, it will always be a howa, no matter what you do to it.

You could restamp it as one of the post-Chapter 11 Remlins. Very collectable, last of the breed...

great price,,but I don't like the stock design ,, but it would probably be quite good, for hunting. almost forgot it should be quite ridged with it's alloy bedding.

You could always throw the Howa into a green GRS Bifrost stock, assuming you want it to look like something from the gardening section at Bunnings.

No-one would even notice it's a Howa. They'd be too busy trying to figure out why it has so many rails fitted in strange places (I think there's one in the mag well to).
