Paule Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Have new his and hers M1 Field guns, soon to be converted to Limited configs. My wife's needs to be shortened. Anyone know if the screw pillars need top be reinforced (about 1-1/4" will be removed). or should I be looking for a different buttstock to cut off? Thanks for any ideas!

diehli Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Give Beven Grams a call: 949/548-3745. He knows a thing or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Cut it off that far and the screw pillars will be gone! NO BIG THING. just epoxy in pieces of wood dowel rod 1/2"-3/4" and let dry. These become the new stock screw pillars. It takes an extra day for the job, but it has worked well on all the ones we have shortened.

Paule Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 Thanks, Kurt. That was kinda what I thought, but good to know I'm not breaking new ground! I'm taking my time, as there is a good bit of metalwork required too, so this shouldn't affect the due date at all. My better half is pretty patient, and she already has plenty of guns, just a newfound interest in 3-Gun to satisfy. 3CG, if I run into trouble I plan to give Beven a call. He just fixed all my SV mags and the joy is back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
