Replacing cracked gunstock?
I would appreciate any recommendations for a stock maker in the UK happy to replicate a military one which is unfortunately cracked. I suspect cost could be prohibitive but feedback/opinions would be gratefully received.
Thank you all.
Thank you all.

You might want to try Ross Haygarth up in Dunnet.
The stock work he has done for me in the past has been exemplary but since Colin, his father's death he has the whole business to run now.
As you say I think it would be a tad on the pricey side.

It might help everyone if you state what rifle stock is cracked.

There's a french polisher and woodworker on one of the airgun forums who regularly repairs both air gun amd shotgun/full bore stocks to a fantastic standard (even when they are in 2-3 separate pieces). How big is the crack/split, perhaps it can be repaired?
