Hey fellas, last night I split my forestock down the barrel channel while installing the pin in the muzzle-end ramrod pipe. The pin hung up on the pipe tab next to the drilled hole and I stupidly tried to use force. It split cleanly along the channel about 4 inches from muzzle, across the barrel lug inlet. This is a kibler SMR and the forestock is very thin.
I've done many crack repairs on wood stocks, but never at a weak/thin point like this. I'm concerned about how stable the repair will be.
What glue do you recommend for this repair? Is it better to install the barrel back in the stock while the glue is drying?
Any other recommendations for the repair?
Thanks, Tom
