You have to take the gun out of the stock and see just how deep the crack goes into the wood. If it really is just a surface crack due to the wood drying and crazing then Gorrila glue is fine. Most of the Parker Hales I have fixed, like so many Mauser actions, that crack goes a lot deeper than just the surface. For those, glass in a pillar in the rear screw hole, glass the tang, recoil lug and front screw. That will do a permanent fix as the crack is caused by the action moving in the stock on recoil. Gorilla glue spackled on top will not fix the problem.
