JAK Frost Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Hi all, I finally had a day of work in over three months so hit the farmers field with high hopes of finding some rabbits. While Zero in the scope, my stock had cracked :-( I can only suspect this was a week point as spoken to a few people and informed that these german crafted guns are usually spot on. Never miss treated nor abused. So now the time comes; can anyone reccommend a straight fit stock to my Weihrauch HW80k .22 or a custom stock. I have tried looking but seem to get taken to USA sites. Just to top it off on sunday, there was loads of rabbits that I couldn't shoot :-( Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFN Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Get some good wood glue to repair the break then strip and refinish the stock and you won't notice it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineshooter Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Try these http://www.customstock.co.uk/Products.htm Sandwell fieldsports used to use them for some of their custom Hw`s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAK Frost Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 I've got some good wood glue (claims to be stronger than wood when set). Just squirted the glue inn and and clampped it together with leather beneath to protect the stock. Let's hope this works, in the mean time I may try out making a stock myself. Thanks.

evo Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 now that is a shock,,the HW,s are normally built like german tanks, hope you sort it bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonwolf444 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Just a thing on wood glue, i mixed up a load of filler using evo stick ( stronger than wood when set ) and because it had sat in my shed for three years being thawed and frozen, it wouldnt set properly. I bought a new tub and it was fine. HW stocks often come up on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGHT SEARCHER Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 A good gunsmith would repair it for you. Glue and clamp is very common. And is a good permanent fix. If it`s to bad. www.gunspares.co.uk have new ones at £135. Have a look on www.gunstar.co.uk or www.guntrader.co.uk Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretagentmole Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Use a casamite glue, much better than evolackofstick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Anyway . Just how and where did it break? U. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 A good glue for repairing/joining wood is Cascamite. It's very easy to use and sets very hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
