DHE with cracked stock

[Leslie Ruby]

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

[Dean Romig]

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

[Leslie Ruby]

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

[Dean Romig]

You're forgiven...

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

no- not required - except if you select it accidentally

welcome to the board

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.

[Leslie Ruby]

Yes, inherited it from my Dad.

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

Just put a comment about the picture in so there is text

I would guess that is to keep out annoying auto posts that harass some sites

[Leslie Ruby]

Not worth the trouble

[Dean Romig]

Indeed it is Mr. Ruby.

We're trying to help, why not play by the rules? It is really very simple.

Of all places a wrist break can occur, that is the worst from a standpoint of a sound repair. That close to the tang leaves very little wood in front of the break to tie into to reinforce the damage after repaired.
