LugerLizzie, I agree with John but will ad that these were made of oak and they have a grain that sometimes splits. I have tried different adhesives but because they are often oil soaked it is improbable that glue will work . Either buy an original and restore it or like John says buy a new made one. A new wood piece will probably suffice for shooting. I have several GT made and installed for me and they are great shooters. If you get an original I wouldn's shoot it. Jerry Burney
