crack in stock head
hello, this is bruce willis again with another question. I was dove hunting with my 1906 VH 12 gauge and noticed that while looking down at the top lever/stock head the stock wood is above the level of the receiver "proud" on the sides of the receiver. Maybe a 1/16 inch or so. Enough to notice. The stock is origional and in good condition. I shoot standard 2 3/4 inch 3 dram winchester AA trap loads for upland, remington 2 3/4 inch express 1 1/4 oz #6 loads for pheasant, and 2 3/4 inch #5 1 1/16 oz tungstin matrix loads for duck. There is no stock play, and no cracks. I know with out good pictures, or actually looking at the gun it hard to tell what is going on. does anyone know of a really good stock man in northern california who could check this. the gun is in excellent condition, and I do not want someone to butcher it. I have had Del grego do some work, and was the best, but I really do not want to ship the gun for this. I contacted dale tate, but he said he is not doing gun repair at this time. I used great american gunstocks once, but they burned down, but now in business again. But they are not parker specialists. thanks for your help BW.
