Difficult to say without actually seeing the gun. You need to determine two things. First, is what you are seeing the beginnings of a split. Second is the frame solid against the wood in the head of the stock so there is no movement on recoil. Wood can shrink or become soft with oil over time creating a slight gap with rear of the receiver and that allows the rearward movement. Only with close examination can you tell if it can be fired without increasing the split. Your gun, your call.
