Very simple, top screw on the back of the stock {above the hinge}. caution push pin spring is located at rear of lower.

The screw that holds the buttstock on has red Loctite on it. This is the 'permanent' stuff, so you will need either a "pistol grip" or T-handle screw driver to take it off. Snap-On sells these, and I'm sure other companies do also. Use a wide bit, i.e. 1/4 inch. You can also try an electric drill, but use a corded one as those usually have more torque.
