Fore Stock Removal on Uberti 66
« on: November 10, 2015, 03:26:55 PM »
How do you remove the fore stock on these Uberti 66s?  Need to get it off to make a mold for imitation ivory replacement but can't find instructions on the web. HELP!!!

See this thread:

It describes removing from a 73' but it's the same process; gotta remove the magazine tube first.

Tyrel,  Thanks for the link.  I removed this thing once before but it was many years ago and at my age, last week can qualify for that time frame. Now to get it off and make a mold.

Ah, just a tip.  Even though you said you had removed the mag tube once before ..........

Often, the ferule that retains the mag tube has burrs where the pin goes thru.  The burrs will often score the mag tube.  Remove very carefully and before you re-assemble, inspect and polish the inside of the ferule.  DO NOT twist the mag tube back and fourth to remove
it.  You'll get some really nasty score marks.
