las, sorry, but having tested pins of every kind we could think of, subjecting them to all kinds of stresses they add less than nothing to wood repairs, look ugly, and waste time.
Starting with a heated stock and using the tiniest bit I like to drill a hole at the opposite ends of a crack and inject a little bit of mixed epoxy.
Seemed like a good idea at the time....
I figured if it was good for behind the recoil lug it would work elsewhere. Learn something new every once in a while.
Never had a pinned one come apart, so I guess the epoxy did the trick. Can't disagree about the looks, or time involved.
Besides a tight tang, another common cause of a split wrist is not having relief around the rear receiver screw.
