Does anyone know if the French Model 1853/1867 Snider "Hunting" Conversions (aka "ZULU" shotguns) ever saw service in the Civil War? My dad just picked up one at an auction, and it's in rough but restorable condition. Stock has a crack along the underside, plus a warp that I'm hoping to repair. Should have it tomorrow and upload more photos.
Anyone with stock repair knowledge, please let me know the best glue that will dry clear and require minimal sanding. Is there also any fluid I can use to soak the stock and harden up the fibers?
I had a friend show me his father-in-law's Snider late last year, and shortly after saw the same type firearm on American Pickers, with the owner having a box with a rope-attached hook for firefighting purposes. Thanks, Eric.
