    If, as I suspect, the FE iron is a casting, it's not much of a surprise that it could crack - but, being cradled id the wood of the FE, it's must have taken a heavy blow to do so.

    Since guns generally don't speak, how it happened may be impossible to know.

    Now I lay me down to sleep
    A gun beside me is what I keep

    Most certainly mis-handled..
    Real Trick, gettin that "safety-pin" type spring in there!!!
    Near as I can ascertain... That is a Snap on forend. And a tight SOB
    Haven't broke that casting yet... but, I can see this is a very good place for a Better quality piece!!!!

    Saving any kind of side by side .410 is worth all the effort you can muster.
    “You should tell someone what you know. There should be a history, so that men can learn from it.

    He smiled. “Men do not learn from history. Each generation believes itself brighter than the last, each believes it can survive the mistakes of the older ones. Each discovers each old thing and they throw up their hands and say ‘See! Look what I have found! Look upon what I know!’ And each believes it is something new.
