    Got wood and it's broke

    I have a broken forearm actually two for a Browning 12ga A500R. I can’t find a replacement anywhere and am considering have at least one professionally repaired. They are very thin, why they crack, and I am not sure it is something I want to tackle.

    Anybody have a recommendation on who might do such a thing, with function in mind?

    Thanks in advance

    Orlando, Thanks, I had checked Midwest and Western but not the others. I found my first replacement on a forum a few years ago. It lasted two/three seasons. Might have to buy a real gun one day.

    There is a wood guy on CMP forum that did some work for me on a cracked stock and it came back looking very good and I am a tough one to please. He was located in AZ,but his name escapes me at the moment,but his work was impeccable.
    I just remembered his company was called Sparx,and I believe his name was Jim.

    His name is Jim and does great work. His email address is:
    Jim Lisowski
    Please let me know what he says. We hasn't been accepting new projects maybe he's working again, I hope.
