Gunsmithing Help! How to increase Manners Length of Pull in the T4A?

[ChuckSwagger]

Hi,

I just got my rifle and the length of pull it to short for me and I need to increase it by 1 and 1/2 inches, but I haven't seen how to do it on the internet info?
As I live outside USA I can't send it to Manners.
Any idea how could I perform it and which limb saver/ parts should I buy for it?

Thank you in advance!

Other than sending it to Manners to add their LOP kit, there is no 'bolt on' that would exactly fit the stock. I custom installed this LOP on my T4A, but had to route the aluminum to fit it exactly.

You could try three of these:

what jzwolens said is the way to go. The shotgun guys do it all of the time. The have fixtures to grind the plates that won't hurt your pad or stock.

What thickness is the recoil pad? If its the 1/2" you can cut it off and reattach and grind a 1" pad. They also make grind to fit LOP spaces I have used.

But how to take out the original butpad, since it's looks like glued and there is no screws to do it?

The recoil pad thickness is the standard one:

I need to increase it in 1 and 1/2 inches.
I don't mind to buy their original ones, but I need to know where to start, since there is no screws to take it out.

There are screws in the two little holes in the pad. Philips screws down in the holes. I took a couple spacers out of mine recently, it wasn't glued just the two screws

The standard Manners butt pad is glued on. I sliced it off with a tablesaw.

Manners stocks with the screws through the pad is equipped with the length of pull kit

If it's glued you should be able to cut it off with braided fishing line or nylon string.

Mine must have all had the adjustable lop.

Some fellows indicates ones above, but they need some work.
Is there some plug and play spaces and where to buy it?
Which glue is appropriated to do the job?

 

[supercorndogs]

Devcon, marine tex, JB weld. I put screws in as well, but from manners its just glue. I guess maybe you could cut the rubber off the plastic with a piece of string. I would use a band saw or a table saw. Or if you are careful to get it straight a hack saw.

Thank you!
I already buy and going to do it.

Cheers!
