I have a slightly off topic question - I recently bought a used 760 3006 that is different than most. It has a stock just like a 870 shotgun with the pressed checkering and all. The butt plate is steel so it may be origional. The forearm is not held on with a screw or pin and I am wondering how to get it off. Any suggestions? I got it for $160 at gander mountain and the stock needs to be refinished and the worn bluing will keep it as a woods worn veteran. The price was good because it was also missing the magazine. GM wanted $40 for a new plastic bottom one so I went to a pawn shop and found 4 steel ones for $25 in thier misc. magazine box. I like the tip about boiling tha magazines. I think I will do that with this one and my dad's 742 magazines too. H
