I dissembled Wade and Butcher 4/8" for cleaning and such. During my polishing of on of the scales, I noticed a hairline crack completely through at the hinge pin hole. The crack runs from near dead center of the hinge pin hole laterally to the edge of the scale. It is not a lengthwise crack. So I applied CA (super glue) and worked it into the crack by flexing the scale. The glue was applied to one side only and I managed to work it in so that it was oozing out the the other side.

So that drying now and I want to know if cracks in this location are always major issues or is this going to be fine. Other than this crack the scales are in great condition.

So should I use them as repaired or do something more.
