Forend repair recommendation

Recommended Posts

Have Lincoln no.2 with a nasty split in the forend.

Gun isn't amazing so don't want to spend a fortune but need a good solid repair that doesn't look awful, without wanting to refinish the rest of the woodwork.

Any recommendations on who to speak to?

lf you want to have a go yourself you can use epoxy resin or another waterproof glue degrease the split and work the glue in clamp and wipe excess off thoroughly ,and for further reinforcement a fine fibreglass cloth or silk material or similar on the inside apply glue to an area, apply reinforcing material apply more glue to wet reinforcing put some cling film over the top and work all of the excess glue out and leave to set if epoxy if not remove cling film so repair can dry when set a bit of sandpapering to tidy up on the inside outside if lacquered flat down with 3000 wet and dry then polish if oil flat down and oil hope this helps
