Hi,

Well gee uhhh . . . I took my Mauser 95, with the beautiful boyds stock, hunting back in NY last week.

Shot a nice 100lber, fat doe. Evryone in camp got their deer this year!

Bad news: After butchering we all went back to the woods to try to fill our 2nd tag.

I was sleepy and knocked mauser out of the stand. 21 feet down, it nearly broke the stock in 2 on the pistol grip.

Don't feel bad Mr. 98K! Will post pics when I can. Any advice? I will write boyds but of course their warranty, translated into ahoyza english basically says, "We don't warantee stupid." I guess I have a new winter project, can't complain about that!

PS deer was taken with 154g hornady RN, and 33gr 4895. Went right down.

SGN has a couple of gunsmiths writting articles. I think that is repairable. Exactly how will likely depend on exactly how the break is, but I think that some bedding compound maybe a reinforcing pin, etc. and it will probably be just fine and virtually undetectable.
