    You probably need to give a bit more information to get a full and proper answer, but if it is a split across the grip part of a wooden rifle stock, Cascemite or similar in the split, as well as a screw, should do it.

    There may be better glues about now but I alsways found Cascamite to be stronger than the wood it was glueing whilst still easy to wipe off or sand back any excess.
    Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're probably right.

    I used some evo stick extra strong wood glue on a broomhandle (actual broom, not a Mauser) a few years back and it's still going strong. It actually broke again in a different place!
