What is the best way to repair a broken stock Can't post a pic as system will not let me. Will post when I get the stock.
I was thinking epoxy and a strength band rap till dry.

i have put a couple back together with Accuglass, Tried it on just a broken board then stressed it after the accuglass dried and cured then apply the same type of stress and the board broke elsewhere. Did that as an example of how it would hold.

I presume it's broken t the wrist.
Embed a piece of allthread liberally coated with epoxy at the joint.

I repaired one that was broken at the wrist (wooden stock; not plastic) with Gorilla Glue and it has held up beautifully. As noted above, most of the adhesives you use nowadays, once set, are stronger than the material around them.

Hopefully the break is mostly in long grain. End grain doesn’t glue up that well.

Will post when I get the stock. Wood came off on top, above the threaded part that goes into the stock.
