enfield ati stocks

[MH357]

I purchased 2 bubba enfiled, no 4's sporterized stocks. I want to put a ati synthetic stock on on since the current stock is shortened beyond belief, also stock screw is bungered up so bad I do not dare put it back in. Do the ati stocks come with the mounting screw in the butt stock or not? I thought I seen a n0 3 with a allen head screw in it.

Thanks Mike H

MH357,
I went to the ATI website at www.atigunstocks.com and copied the installation instructions for a No.4 Enfield stock. There is no mention of a buttstock replacement screw. They are sold separately by parts dealers. You could try Gun Parts Corporation at www.gunpartscorp.com or Sarco, Inc. at www.sarcoinc.com for a buttstock screw. Hope this helps. All the best...

STEP #1
Remove Magazine. Open bolt and examine chamber to make certain the chamber is empty.

STEP #2
Remove the two screw-clamped barrel bands and upper handguards. Remove the two screws in the
trigger guard, note the relationship between the trigger and the sear as reference for reinstallation
later. Lay rifl e (magazine well facing upward) on bench and carefully work stock forearm upward
and off barreled action.

STEP #3
Remove rear upper handguard stock band. It may be necessary to remove front sight guard to completely remove band.

STEP #4
Remove buttstock by opening trap door on buttplate and loosening attaching bolt. (Bolt is usually a slotted-head and a large blade screwdriver will be needed to remove it.)
Note: Some of these bolts may be extremely tight.

STEP #5
Remove buttplate from Monte Carlo stock. Install the new buttstock using the original rear stock attaching bolt. Tighten bolt. Reinstall buttplate.

STEP #6
Lay the rifle (magazine well up) and work the new Monte Carlo forearm down over the barreled action. Caution: Be certain trigger is properly engaged with sear. Align trigger guard rear screw hole and start rear screw (Do not tighten.) Install trigger guard front screw and tighten. Tighten trigger guard rear screw.

STEP #7
If you experience difficulty installing forend, look at the rear opening of the original wooden
forend–it may be necessary to cut out the bridge of your Monte Carlo stock to match the original
confi guration and ensure a proper fit. No other modification is necessary and this will not
void the warranty."

Yes it's a screw. Just fix the original. It will probably cost less than a new on considering P&H.

Put the ati stocks on both enfields today, I used hex head bolts to attach the but stock (7/16 bolt 14 threads/inch) They would not fit in the hole on the original stocks head was to big. The ati stocks being hollow gave it plenty of room infact the stock is a very tight fit and the extra torque I could use with the ratchet made bolting it up very easy. Hated to not make them original again but they were bubbaed allready. I got both rifles off of gun brooker for $117.00 counting shipping, $2.00 dollars for legal paperwork and the stocks were $48.00 at mid south. I will probably scope them both and used them for bad weather and guest hunting rifles. The stocks fit pretty good and added about 1.5 inches to the pull.
