Default DHE with cracked stock

I was wondering if this was worth getting fixed or if it was possible to fix.

That can absolutely be repaired. It looks like a fairly high condition gun and the repair will be well worth the expense. Get someone to do it who will make the repair invisible.
It will be stronger after the repair than it was before the break.

You should read about the "Chicken Coop Gun" starting on page 23 of the Spring 2016 Issue of Parker Pages.



Incidentally, those are pretty silly poll questions - what makes you ask those?

can it be repaired - absolutely

is it worth it - if the rest of the gun looks as good as the bit of the stock we can see - absolutely

is Dean right about silly poll questions - absolutely

Did not understand the purpose of poll questions and the site said I had to put some in.

You're forgiven...

Tell us about your DHE please. Did you acquire it with the broken wrist?

Just like the insert image icon on this, It asks for a URL. The image would be on my computer hense no URL. Like I said in the poll really NOT-user friendly site.

Default More pictures of gun

See I added 5 more pictures and the site complains that my "subject is too short please add three more characters"

A picture needs to be on a website

What I do is start an album here on the board - you can load that from your computer. The combined size per load is limited, so if they are bigger of them one if two at a time

Then you can either just post a link to the album or right click on a picture in the album to copy the image location and paste that into the image loader
