No probs hope it helps, Edi Graff yeah, he's on another couple of sites as ejg. Does he repair wood?

[jigsaw 11,863]

he said he would john so I'll call to him and see what he says.

Looks like its a clean break that could be secret pinned and repaired in my view but a stock repairer will advise better if you take it to him, at least would put you on.

Alternative there is a link here to Jackson rifles who could sort you for a new stock.

Peters Stock list is quite impressive and I am sure if you go down that route on a new stock he will do you a good deal if you speak to him nicely.

I didnt spot my rifle type listed on the stock list,so not sure if they do them.I sent an e mail so hopefully they'll let me know soon.

If it were me and money was tight I think I'd at least have a try at a repair myself before i bought another. If not you personally then approach a decent joiner for an opinion. It may get you through while you scrape the pennies together at least? Certainly couldnt make it any worse. Lucky it wasnt your leg!

theres a 2 bit adhesive called aroldite, this if used as instructed will stick wet shite to wet shite, fill in any cracks etc with a wood filler of some sort, you can only give it a go, nothing to lose now?

[mattydski 560]

Jiggy.. If you get an amail back on the 527 replacement stocks, or get any other on 527 replacements... let us know would ya? I want a laminate stock for my 527 hornet...

That's good shit mate, (http://www.screwfix.com/p/araldite-rapid-2-x-15ml/10977?_requestid=1963984) but I've never found anything better than this stuff for glueing wood:

Sets in 5 minutes but needs 24 hours or so to reach it's maximum strength. The work will need clamping firmly until the full bond is reached, but after it sets the glue bond should be stronger than the wood itself.

[Caprelous 217]

If your going to carry out the repair yourself

Secret pin it with bronze dowels and use this glue which is what a professional would use and clamp it hard in a wood faced vice for a period of 3 days in a warm room make sure you have a film of plastic sheet between the vice jaws and the stock or you will never release it from the vice , if you take your time and treat the surfaces with the re acting hardner before applying the glue and you would not even know it had been smashed if you clean it of carefully and polish it back to its original finish.

 

This is the stuff to use mate.
