:shock: Bloody hell, and I thought I was rough, I wouldn't even put that on a $100.00 shotgun, looks like it was used to whack someone in the ribs. :lol:

Is that the technical term for "Jammed a heap of bugle heads in with the tek gun and ground the heads off with the four inch"?

I still reckon your magic brew will fix it :D

Don't forget to wrap it in wet rawhide and let it dry and shrink to give the job the finished look.

Some tactical nails and special forces epoxy should fix that up.

You will need to wrap it with copper wire to give it a nice finish.
Or plan B get a new one made.

Not off a Stevens shotgun is it?

I have a Stevens stock with a split in it, which makes it about 500% better than that one.

Larry Potterfield can show you how to fix that on Youtube. Threaded rod, a big drill, and lots of epoxy.

According to Larry's videos any gunsmithing task can be dealt with in a 3 minute video....
