Hello All!
I was taking apart my Stevens .22/.410 to clean out the innards (it's misfiring the .22) and somehow while removing the bolt that holds the stock on I managed to knock a chunk out of the side. It's about 1/4" x 2", and a single "splinter" of wood came off. There's a hole in the side of the stock right where the bolt cinches down (which on the bright side actually made it easier to reinstall the bolt)
Can I just use elmer's wood glue to glue that piece back in? Would I be better off using CA or Epoxy? Does this compromise the strength of the stock?
thanks,
GB
