buttstock removal
« on: September 19, 2009, 01:03:00 PM »
I removed my old buttstock and there appears to be a washer in the bottom.  It will not shake out and I don't have a flat head screwdriver long enough to try and pop it out.  Any ideas?

I got it out  :D  Two whacks on the recoil pad side with a rubber mallet knocked it loose.

I looked in the FAQ and I could not find a torque value for the buttstock bolt.  I'm thinking 35 in/lb?

Tight! I'd say at least spark plug tight, 25-30ft/lbs should work, that's about how tight I've been making em for years.  ;)

Thanks Tim.  I'll go for the ft/lbs instead.  It sure was tight to get it off  :)
