loose stock
« on: Dec 06, 2010, 08:29:09 PM »
hey guys,
 i noticed coming out of woods today my stock on my 30/30 is loose. i tightened the screws that hold it in and 2 out of 3 felt like they were stripped. anybody else have this problem and if so how did you fix it and/or is there a place to get new screws?- thanks :)

If you pull the butt plate, there should be a screw up in the stock. Will need a long screwdriver. Should be able to see it with a light.

AHHH, you may have to change the screws. Do they go into a block? If so you would have to re tap. It's on your Marlin right?
