How to take the bottom metal out of an AI stock?

[Tomcat]

How do I take the trigger guard out of an AI stock? I need to get the trigger guard / magazine well out.

The rifle is a GA Precision Crusader with a AI stock, (not a true AI).

I tried taking the two screws that seem to go through the bottom metal but it didnt budge.

Do I have to take the two sides completely apart?

Well is a part of the stock. Maybe stuck because it is beded?

The mag well trigger guard DOES NOT come out of the chassis.....its all one piece.

Take the skins off and you will see that the bedding block/trigger guard/bottom metal is all one peice.

the trigger guard is made of up of the two stock sides, and as everyone else has said its a one piece deal. what do you mean not a true AI?

I'm guessing this means it is not an AW or an AE but a custom action/barrel (in this case GAP Crusader) in an AICS?

AI trigger guards aren't removable. They're molded into the skins. Just curious, why do you need to remove the trigger guard and mag well? If you don't mind permanently removing it then a hacksaw or dremel would suit your needs. I'd advise against a torch cuz it'll make a mess of all the polymer around it.

Somewhere on here is a post with the AICS completely disassembled.
