I'm usually pretty good at fixing broken stocks but FedEx did a real number on that one. Add to that the original wood was not great. After I got it repaired but before I finished it I gave it a little stress test. It broke again parallel to the glue line but about 3/4" off Just super brittle wood. I have my eyes on a few replacement stocks.
My girls can burn through some 22 even on old tube fed bolt actions so I am in no hurry to get this into operational status.
The call by the way has nice tone and good volume. My house backs up to an ACOE easement so I have LOTS of turkeys, bears, yotes, foxes etc. While I cant hunt them from the back deck it is fun to practice calling them in. For some reason it does tend to annoy the golfers though! [:D]
