Fixing a cracked stock

I've got two cracked lever gun stocks. Both are cracked at the tang (shipping damage in both cases) and the damage is very similar on both. The crack does not go all the way through and is fairly difficult to spread apart at all.

I would like to use a syringe type injector to get down into the crack without having to open it up any more than necessary. I'm thinking about using Titebond III glue, but am not sure if it is thin enough to inject thru a needle?

Has anyone ever tried this method?

Other options are to try an epoxy like acraglas or Devcon 2, but again I would need to inject it through a needle.

The easiest method would be to use a superglue type product. Titebond makes these in thin, medium and thick viscosities. I think the thin would be fairly easy to get into the cracks, but I wonder how durable it would be?

I'm open to suggestions

This one is the worse of the two, you can see that it's cracked in three places.
