in 2001 I attended the auction of R.J. Anton's estate. He was a well known stockmaker here in Iowa. I bought most of the stocks that were there and got quite a few broken factory stocks for everything from model 12s to Charles Dalys,Smiths,a couple of Ithaca sbt's and a couple of very high grade Perazzi's. Seems that any gun is a candidate for a broken stock if used enough.Still have a unreal nice stock for a 3200 that should be fixed.Looks like it was never used but it broke right through the grip at an angle.
