Dave,

if you have the broken part, it can be pinned back usinga fine drill and wire.

If you don't have the part, the best way would be to remake the missing part.

I've done that sort of work with swords, so see other themes in the repairs section that I have posted.

PS I could try and fix it, but if you send a picture, I can at least advise you better.

What John says is absolutely right. However post a pic so we can see the damage.

Ditto ditto. We can offer more precise tips (unintentional pun) with some pics.

Prost!

Dave,

I have a friend who can fix anything. He'd fixed and painted tons of stuff for me. You'll never be able to tell it was ever broken. He's that good.

Where in Jersey are you? I live in Chester.

Where is your friend located? Me and my grandfather were gonnna attempt to fix it ourselves, but if your friend is that good than maybe i should send it to him. I live in sayreville by the way.

Long Valley. He recently fixed for me a K & C glossy horse that had a broken leg. You can't tell now it was broken. Since he has his own company, Le Mans, he knows how to mix paints, particularly on K & C items, since he used to be one of their dealers.

Dave,

Pm me if still interested. I talked to my friend and he think he can help you.

I believe the figure he is speaking about is firing Bren behind stone wall.

I see. Quite a different piece. Thanks John.

Still not a difficult repair at all
