Default Stock repair maybe?

Attached are pics of a very old stock repair that seems to be very solid except for a crack about two inches long from the receiver on the cheek. I think the repair at the wrist is acur glass and it seems to be alright as I have been shooting the gun and it has not changed at all. There is a small dowel through the crack that was not visible until I did some cleaning. Neither was the crack.
I am thinking about trying to repair this myself. Will soaking in acetone damage the material that was used in the previous repair or do you think it will hold up to this. Any suggestions are appreciated. I'm thinking about using it for turkey hunting this year. It is choked very tight in both tubes. I need it to be as stable as possible. Thanks. Gerald
