dazza Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Is there anywhere you can buy a replacement fore end for a Beretta 686? Dropped my gun this morning and put a split right up it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) I think GMK can supply the rough wood as a part but will need fitting by a stocker or gunsmith best get on the phone to some local smiths and get soem quotes, you might be lucky and someone with a stock one from a scrapped gun or similar Edited October 8, 2010 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyR Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Take it to a gunsmith, it maybe possible to get it repaired. I did exactly the same thing a couple of years ago with my 687, dropped the fore end which split from end to end on one side and partly down the other. My local gunsmith reapaired it for £30, I wouldn't like to say I can't see the repair but it's certainly not very noticable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza Posted October 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 The problem is there's not many gunsmiths over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Have you tried Derek Lee in Lincoln? He has more spare woodwork than you can point a stick at. Alternatively Chris Potter Kent. Have had good deals with both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave 101 Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 If its a good clean split try a local joiner or furniture maker he should be able to repair it . Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlaserF3 Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 This Gunsmith http://www.greenwoodgunsmiths.co.uk/ will be able to repair it. There have been some articles in Clay Shooting with his repairs on woodwork, I did not believe what can be repaired. http://www.greenwoodgunsmiths.co.uk/stockrepairs.php#Update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
