Thank you for the great reply, it's tremendously helpful.
I agree 100% the jar soaking the head didn't work. I have the same line halfway up my stock. I'm doing full lacquer soaks now. I might pickup more acetone and do a full soak with that also.
I've attached a picture of its current state. Yes that is a nail sticking through the side, 1 of three I found so far!
Once I get done soaking it the plan is to pull all the nails, chisel/flatten the sides where the nails where and embed a new piece of wood between sides. I do plan on doing the staple trick as well. After all that I'm going to use west systems or acraglas to bed the whole area.
I figure doing all this will give me time to find a good semi inletted or replacement stock.
