    Simple instructions for replacing escutcheon

    It is easy to replace the escutcheon. I worked this method out to prevent messing up the stock, and insuring that the new one goes in straight.

    First, Remove the recoil plate, then slightly (2 or 3 turns) thread the old screw into the escutcheon. Tap the screw to push the escutcheon out.. Then replace the recoil lug, and stick the new screw through the lug. Started to thread the new escutcheon on the screw until the serrated part touches the bottom of the stock. Wiggle it around to line up with the existing grooves from the old escutcheon and push in. Then use the screw to pull the new escutcheon, by turning the screw in until snug.
