I have the same problem
now mind you I bought mine with a broken wrist. Its an 1896 gh its in great shape other than the fact that when I bought it recently at a local gun show the wrist was wrapped in copper wire, you could tell it had been repaired long ago, I looked at it for about a week before I had to see what was hiding under the wrap. So slowly and carefully I removed the copper to find that the stock had been broken at the wrist and repaired a long long time ago... Now I might be able to shoot it and nothing may happen, or ?
so I thought about it and hey, its my gun, it came to me, I bought it not for what its worth but for what it is, and I'm gonna get the stock fixed, done right, and maby long after I'm gone somebody else is gonna find it and enjoy it for what it is.. It belongs to me for now, im going to treat it right, shoot it and enjoy it until it someone elses turn
