Just received my 9.3x62 Sauer model 90 from shipping !

any ideas guys can it be pinned ?

Obv I will extract every last penny out of the shippers for this crime against humanity - indeed perhaps a phone call to the Hague maybe in order !

If the bloody rifle worked perhaps summary execution ! and no last ciggie - I am pissed !

Appreciate any and all advice

Man, that sucks! At least there is enough to use as a club on the shipper!

You are a bloody genius - what an idea ....... some knees will not be working soon ...........
 
Would not even consider pinning with that caliber, especially where the separation is...complete new replacement stock without a doubt. What a shame
 
Even if you could successfully glue it together, you would never be happy with it. What a shame. Send her back.
 
They have used a very poorly grained stock to start off with so a replacement should be expected.
 
Looks like they shipped a suppository to me.


Restocked with a lovely new walnut with nice burl.
The emotional damage has been significantly traumatic to warrant a minor upgrade.

If you have a competent gunsmith nearby, get a quote on the installation with proper bedding and the cost of a new stock and go after the shipper for it. Or send her back and hope the second one arrives in better shape.

Hope you did not buy it from Cabela's! I bought the most expensive gun I own from Cabela's in Anchorage AK, the yshipped it in a flin=msy box packed like it was a baseball bat from Wal Mart... but they insured it for full value... I arrived with a broken rear peep and messed up front site... Which they rightfully blamed on Fed Ex... Fed Ex has asked for a letter from them releasing Fed Ex from liability to Cabela's and permission ot pay me for the repairs... It has been almost 3 months and they can't send me a simple letter! It has been sent to their :"legal department"!!! But I won't give up and if need be I have my own legal department.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
