Who to use to repair possible cracked stock #52548 08/17/07 02:15 PM

I have a straight grip boxlock that may have a small crack, 1/4", coming straight back from the center of the top tang. It could be possible it's an irregularity in the finish but I have some concern. I would like to have this professionally evaluated and fixed if possible rather than having to restock the gun. Any suggestions?

If 'nh' stands for New Hampshire, there are a number of good choices in the NE. The work of many master craftsmen can be seen on the 'Repairs and Restorations' album http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/view?p=999&gid=15127852 and the 'Upgrades and Restocks' album http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery.fcgi?p=999&gid=15994728 https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home

There are step-by-step pics of Dr Bill Hambidge repairing a midline crack in a Parker on the 'Long Cracked Smith Repair' album http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery.fcgi?p=999&gid=17090409 I think the guy that did this work is still accepting clients, if you don't mind getting the gun back with a couple of itty bitty screws missing Last edited by revdocdrew; 08/18/07 09:43 AM. https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home
