Synthetic stock ??

[Fox Mike]

Has anyone repaired a Ruger synthetic stock, and if so, what did you use?

 

[JMD101]

What and where did it break? Pics?
Did you call Ruger? you might be surprised!

 

[Mobuck]

Depending on the location and severity of damage, I'd suggest first trying to find a replacement on ebay. Also, it's possible Ruger will replace the stock if the rifle is fairly new.
I've repaired some tupperwear stocks that split but a true 'break' often leaves some splintering that prevents an 'invisible' repair. Brownells 'acra-glass' will stick it back together but may leave an ugly scar.

It's the stock on the gun I acquired on Gunbroker. I haven't even seen it in person yet. Just trying to get some information on how to possibly repair a synthetic stock. Ruger doesn't even list a replacement stock on their site. There are lots for sale all over. All I am trying to do is determine what can be used to repair it.

 

[JMD101]

Call Ruger, tell them I have a xxx rifle and the stock is cracked, can you send or sell me a replacement? Just because they don't list the for sale, doesn't mean they don't have spares for customer service problems.

I saw that damage... I don't think I would try to repair it.

I agree,, replace over repair. That broken stock is also missing the cheek module(s).

what gun are you trying to fix? I have to go look to see if I still have it but I should have
a synthetic stock for a 77/22.

He picked up a "project" Ruger American Rimfire that has seen better days and 1 too many Bubbas

 

[Mobuck]

That's not 'fixable'. Look for another stock.

OP is inquiring about repairing a stock for an American Rinfire, not a 77/22, though.

$200 for an OEM stock??
Granted, most ebay sellers don't seem to know the difference between a Ruger American Rimfire, a Ruger 10/22, and a gooseberry bush---sooner or later a common synthetic stock will most likely show up.

 

[JMD101]

Well there's no recoil to worry about, so any backyard "steampunk" repair is fine.

 

[Mobuck]

OR, wrap the break with rawhide like the Indians used to do. Then you'd have a real 'wild west' rifle.

 

[Fox Mike]

If I bought a Boyd's stock I would have enough $$ involved to buy the rifle new. Trying to resurrect as inexpensively as possible.
