[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Help Removing an AR15 Stock

Posted: 11/6/2007 4:38:51 PM EDT

I wasn't able to find anything on the forum so I figured I'd ask here. I'm trying to remove the buttstock on my AR15 but I'm a little stuck. Are there any links on this site or elsewhere that might be able to help me out?

Thanks

This might help, there's some info on A1/A2 stocks farther down on the page.

If your using a vice and wrench combo and still can't remove the stock, some manuf use loctite on the threads.

You'll have to heat the area untill you smell the loctite burn off.
