O.K., so I'm really dumb.
Once the recoil pad is removed, there is a large metal end-piece with a groove on the end. This end nut is hollow and I must assume that the interior of this end-nut is the recoil spring's playground. I thought that a large screwdriver into the groove and turn would remove this piece and with it the stock. Well, it didn't turn and I don't want to force it without making sure that this is what I want to do. How do you remove the stock?
