Note to self:
On an Ithaca 37 (Actually a Stevens 350), if you decide to superglue a wood forestock to mag tube shroud & action arms, in addition to bending the lip of the front tube shroud backward (to make it rock solid and keep it from slipping forward on the front stroke).......
don't put the forestock on upside down. The glue sets rather quickly.
Now I'm thinking acetone bath. I really don't want to ruin this forestock and have to buy another one.
I took the whole thing apart but cannot figure out how to disengage the rear of the action arms from the bolt carrier so that they'll pull out the front of the receiver, so that I can dunk *just* the action arms, tube shroud and forestock.
The smaller my "bathtub", the better - ideas?
See username ...This is the dumbest thing I've ever done smithing - and that's really saying something. SMH & cursing.
