The posts are soldered onto the barrel. You can cut them close with a hacksaw then file/grind off the remaining part of the post. Obviously the resulting spots on the barrel will be without any bluing so you can re-blue, paint, or otherwise alter the appearance to suit yourself |
How in the world could the stock interfere with the rib?

Actually, the rib pillars are brazed on the barrel. While it's "possible" to heat each pillar with a good torch until the high-temp braze melts, the best of a bad situation is to cut them off. While a red heat may not be bad for the barrel, it AIN'T good for it either. Plus, you'd be spot heating the barrel down the entire length, which would also ruin ALL the finish. |
I'm interested in knowing this too. Rob |
