Cracked trigger guard

[magyar]

I'm weighing the pros and cons of my first drilling purchase...
two I'm looking at have broken/cracked/split trigger guards.
One a JP Sauer, the other is a Krieghoff.
How difficult is it to find replacements?

magyar,
If the trigger guards are genuine buffalo horn, they are difficult to repair, due to being resistant to various adhesives. Connecticut Shotgun Manufacturing Company has genuine buffalo replacements that can be fit to the gun, if a repair attempt fails. "Kunst Horn" (synthetic horn ; plastic horn) may be repairable easier. If you can't find a local gunsmith to do the work, one of the ones advertising in the Trade Directory found in the GGCA publications.
