There are apparently no actual period examples of the use of the gore.

Period heraldic tracts described it as "an abatement of honor" (i.e., a mark of disgrace), so that's not surprising.

Since tracts such as Legh's "Accedence of Armory", 1562, mention the gore, it's been accepted for Society use.

==='''May 2014 -''' <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.5;"> Tierces and Gussets and Gores, Oh My!</span>=== 
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">Also on the December 2013 Cover Letter, we asked commenters to discuss the registerability of gores, gussets, and tierces. In November 1991, Laurel banned the use of charged gores and gussets, matching the already-existing ban on charged tierces, but continued to allow the registration of uncharged gores, gussets, and tierces. In October 2012, we declared a step from period practice for the use of any other charge with a tierce.</span>
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">Much of the discussion centered around our standards for armorial elements. SENA A2B1 addresses this directly:</span>
> Attested Elements: Armorial elements are registerable if they are attested in period European armory. Designs found in a period roll of arms or a treatise on armory meet this standard, even if it is unclear from the treatise if the element was used in actual heraldry. Elements used in arms, in badges, and in crests all meet this standard. Elements must be used and combined in the same ways they were used in period armory.
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">Under current SENA rules, gores, gussets, and tierces are all registerable charges as they are elements found in period heraldic treatises. However, SENA also requires that elements "must be used and combined in the same ways they were used in period armory," and we have no examples of these charges used in actual period armory.</span>
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">After much discussion and research, for which we heartily thank all of the commenters involved, and with some thought towards both period heraldry and the leeway allowed in Society armory, we are making the following rulings:</span>
* <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">The use of a tierce with any other charge on the field remains a step from period practice.</span>
* <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">The use of gores or gussets with other charges is now a step from period practice.</span>
http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2014/05/14-05cl.html

==='''November 1991 - charging gores, gussets (and tierces)''':=== 
"Based on the consensus of those commenting on this issue, the College will ban the use of charged gores and charged gussets, matching the ban on charged tierces. Uncharged gores, gussets, and tierces will continue to be registerable. Any charged gores or gussets currently pending at Laurel will be processed as having been "in the pipeline" before the ban went into effect. Therefore, after March 1, 1992, we will no longer register charged gores or gussets."
