Saw some photos of a percussion rifle with an interesting "joint" in wrist. Too clean to be a break. Is it possible that the buttstock comes off?

Looks like two pieces of wood were joined together then the stock was made with checkering to cover the joint. Unfortunately the joint didn’t hold. A wild guess, not a fact!

Zooming in, I see no sign of any rough areas or adhesives. Just looks curious.
Interesting.

I’ll go along with Phil, looks like an animal glue joint that gave; would be interesting to see under the relative metal work if there are any strengthening inserts.

Looks like just a glued joint to me as well. It's either there to stay or gone for good.
