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!
I understand.. There is more to shortening a FG stock that just cutting it down and screwing the pad back on. McMillan used to provide the service but sometimes it took 6 months to do. Chad (Longrifles Inc.) can do it much faster.

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.
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.
