| Thanks RogersGunWorks, I'll see if I can contact him. I sent photographs to Brian Dudley, who was recommended on this site and he said it could be fixed. Brian is not taking any new work until after the first of the year. |

| Thank all you guys. I have been contacting some of these guys and there work is so good that they are backed up for months right now. I did talk with Griffin & Howe today and they seem positive about being able to repair the rifle. Odd thing is Griffin & Howe said they are getting numerous rifles and shotguns sent to them with the same damage. Makes me wonder if there is a bunch of anti hunting and anti firearms people working for these shipping companies that are intentionally tearing up these guns. |

| If I ship a rifle with a two piece stock I take the butt stock off or break it down in the case of a double such as this. Gives the shippers less leverage to break it. In one case I sandwiched the rifle between two 2x4s. Makes for a shorter package and doesn't look like a "gun". |
