NEF single shot, stock won't come off

[hillbillydruggist]

I have single shot 12 ga NEF single shot. after I removed the recoil pad, there was a cylindrical weight pegged in with a screw. I removed that and when I looked down the hole there was no nut or screw that i could undo. it looked like it was metallic all across with another piece of round metal halfway covering it up. how do I remove?

thanks

Don't know that this will help but a parts breakdown shows nothing but a long bolt with a slot screw head. Maybe take a long pointed object and reach down into the stock and see if perhaps the screw slot has wood shavings or rust causing it to look like what you are seeing. Just a guess on my part since it is hard to visualize exactly what you are seeing.

Not this particular model. I removed the butt pad from a Savage 99 and the bottom of the hole was packed with oily sawdust making it appear to not have a bolt. I scraped the hardened sawdust out with a clothes hanger and there was the bolt. The sawdust had been there since 1918 when the rifle was manufactured.
