Lucas you need to join the k98k forum and post your rifle. I dont have any parts befitting that nice rifle at the moment. I have a couple of scrubbed stamped bands that would look better than the h band. A milled or stamped bandspring would work.
I would leave the stock as is. The crack by the trigger area is very common and never a real problem. The guys that pay the big bucks want it unmolested so keep that in mind. If you bought the speed milled band from the guy that photos everything on a zeltbahn those may be one I sold him. Brian rau I think. Shoot me your address and I'll send you a lug pin.
You should do well if you decide to sell.
Congrats.
It looks like this may end up being the case. I have a one year old and recently found out that baby number two is on the way, so I may need to liquidate a few things in the upcoming months. We'll see how things go...
