Lookin at chopping a 1/2” or so off my A-10 stock to shorten LOP. Besides the threaded inserts for the buttpad screws is there any other surprises to look out for? Thanks!

It’s already about 3/8” won’t go less. Living that short arm life lol
They said they can do it but the turnaround wasn’t addressed. I figured there was more to it than cutting but was hoping for a quick fix. Thanks
Tagging into this for future reference.
Super bored here and was thinking about what it would entail to cut down my McMillan A3 so it would better fit my wife. Was also going to do what Tyler @ MaxOrd did to the grip in order to shorten the distance to the trigger from the grip.
Hope you find the info you’re looking for OP.

I chopped 3/8 off of an A4 so Rebecca could get behind it.
Taped it off, leveled it and made a careful cut with a fine blade on my chop saw.
Had to touch up the back with a little file work to make sure it was flat and even.
The butt pad is an almost perfect fit in its new position. Almost perfect, but not quite.
Don't really care though.

Hate to derail, but do you have more info on this? I have stubby fingers and find the trigger reach on my a3 a bit long.
Please and thank you
