Mild Stock Work

[Steve Thomas]

I just inherited my dads Parker Brothers GH model 12 gage. The neck of the stock has spread about a 16th of an inch on both sides allowing a little side to side movement. Is there anything I can do fix this at home? Any thoughts and ideas would help.

We don't know if you can do it at home, but the staple method is a great alternative to the old way, which was drilling through the cheeks of the stock and installing a bolt from one side to the other.

Thanks for the info, looks like the staple method would be the way to go.
