I'm considering converting a walnut ADL stock into a USMC M40 stock.
I understand the need to:
- modify the magazine area to accept BDL bottom metal,
- open the barrel channel to accept varmint contour, and
- removing the checkering.
I feel comfortable with this.
What I'm concerned about is:
- the wrist and forearm dimensions being too narrow after removing the impressed checkering, and
- what I don't know or understand about this type of conversion, that you might.
Anyone seen or experienced such a conversion? Your opinions and experience would be appreciated.
