Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing Herter's J9 stock questions

Picked up a J9 in 22-250 today and the stock is beat up. Plan to refinish. But have two issues:

- Are there replacements available for the white lightning bolt spacers, they have shrink and are now yellow? I would really like keep the vintage look.

- How does the grip cap come off, can't see the white diamond popping out to reveal a screw but maybe it does. It's loose now and can be twisted around.

Neither Brownells or Numrich list anything for the spacers.

Thanks,
KFB

Got the grip cap off, the diamond did pop out, but am still looking to replace the spacers if anyone knows where they might be found.

I have a 3 piece set(butt,grip and tip) of Herter's spacers but they are white with red instead of the usual white and black.

Sent you a pm.
