waterman, that would bother me on a collector grade gun. Whenever I'm tempted to buy a gun with a crack I remember a prewar M70 I had many moons ago. I was a M70 neophyte at the time and the seller convinced me all the cloverleafs had tang cracks and that was normal. I remember the punch line was something like "that crack isn't going anywhere". I paid a decent price for the gun but every time I showed it to someone they commented about the tang crack. I had it a few years and when I decided to sell I found the crack was a show stopper to most potential buyers. And those few who were interested weren't going to pay anywhere near what I did. I finally found a gent who wanted a prewar M70 to restock, and sold it at a loss. Lesson learned. Silvers

Have it professionally repaired. 32TCs are hard to find in original condition.
