Repairing damaged “cokes”

[MarkHayden]

I recently came on a set of cokes with damage on the left half. Please see the attached photo. Otherwise, the grips are in great condition. Please recommend the grip repair guru.

Thank you, Mark

You don't want to try it yourself? I can send a piece of goncalo your way if your willing to try. I assume it broke on the grain so you wouldn't even see the glue line with a little work.

There are several guys that do a lot of these. I only dabble. If you can't find anyone else, I can make it disappear. I've brought several sets of pre war magnas, and other harder to find stocks back from the grave. I even have a set of Cokes that were cut off even with the bottom of the frame. I spliced in and checkered and bordered new bottoms, matching the grain as best as I could. You can see it if you look for it, but they're great for a shooter grade gun from a couple feet away.

Thanks for your replies. I've got them listed on eBay, if they don't sell I'll contact Chris for a repair.
