Make sure you take out all three screws. There is one in the stock under the receiver cover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I put 70ish rounds thru her today... the ammo came from a friend who had loaded it for some 1000 yard shots...damn my shoulder can tell... I wasn't looking for accuracy just function today.... I have some swinging targets for my 22 that didn't like 168 grains at 2800 ish FT per sec too much Edited March 7, 2009 by Mike Reynolds Quote Link to post Share on other sites

308Mike 0 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Yep it SUX'S big time...a drop in AK is on the short list Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I put an Ace fixed stock and SAW hand grip on mine at the suggestion of a friend. After about 30 rds, I was done firing. It's going to wear the factory stock for a while yet. At least until ALL my conversion parts get in Edited March 9, 2009 by 731rogers1962 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
