I learned my lesson years ago, if something comes broken, don't try to fix it, just send it back. If you monkey with it you are on your own. May not be fair, but that is how 99% of companies are. I had a customer order the wrong part from me and then he painted them bright blue. He wanted to return them and I told him no. He wasn't happy, but no one else would want to buy his bright blue screw pin anchors. Stock patterns for guns change over the time. I think the Browning Citori has about 6 different patterns. Always good to check the stock will fit your gun before you try to fit it.
