Stock fitting issue

I got a new to me DR-200 which was supposed to be NOS. When it arrived, the stock didn't fit the rifle, having a near 3/16" gap between the pistol grip and the receiver. I removed the thumb-hole stock and found the pistol grip screw was toe-nailed in. When I tried pushing the stock to the receiver (photos 1-2) and the screw hole for the pistol grip didn't even line up with the stock. Is this normal for Daewoo fit and finish? I tried playing with tension on each screw but just ended up with a smaller gap along the entire thumb-hole stock and lower receiver.

If you want a better fit, you may have to fill the existing screw hole with JB Weld, then predrill a new screw hole for a tighter fit.
