Many stocks can be repaired. I will be starting on a stock that is in far worse condition than yours and expect to be able to have a decent looking shooter. On this site and other SXS collector sites there is plenty of info on how to repair that stock. Read them all before you start. MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE REMOVED THE OIL FROM THE STOCK BEFORE YOU START!!! Before you reassemble the Elsie read the instructions.
