I'm confident enough with my woodworking skills to remove the recoil pad, and install the limbsaver I purchased. The only question I have is it says to take the rifle to a gunsmith if the pad is glued on. Looking at it, it could just be really old and look like it's glued on, or it could be glued on. Why do they suggest taking it to a gunsmith? Is it just the added headache of the glue, or were the models with a glued on pad somehow different and require sophisticated work?
