Try to study your reference a bit more.
Look at the metal on the photo reference, and then look at what you have.
I would try to start off with flat color first, get that right and then move on to the details later.
At the moment your metal areas are bright white when they should be a darker grey, and your wood is bright orange when it should be less saturated.

add some edges to the back of the stock, it's extremely sharp and should be a little more rounded.
