Rifle Found - California D17

The glass looked great to me, just very dirty. All the dials on the scoped still seemed to work ok, but the zoom was a little stiff (maybe that’s the way it’s designed). On the gun the fiberglass stock is trashed. You can’t touch it without getting little pieces of itchy fiberglass all stuck in your skin. The buttock rubber is also trashed as you can see in the photo. Overall I’d say the barrel and action might be salvageable, but probably with more work than anyone would be willing to put in. On the stock I’d say it’s a total loss.
That's not fiberglass. It's a regular Ruger american polymer stock. It's obviously not a good UV resistant polymer. UV destroys most things with constant exposure.
