Are there parts available to convert a model 11 older non accu trigger from the side button release to a blind mag? If there are any ideas who may have them? Wanting to change my last tupper ware stock to a Boyd's thumbhole laminate.

side button? tupperwear? together?
may not be as old as I am thinking.. you could have something newer then this.

there is a different mag that goes in the clip for the change.

otherwise can you just change the whole box out? any other guns to compare it to?

Just change mag boxes and swap stocks.

Get the mag box from MidwayUSA.

You'll also need a spring and follower.

Blue avenger the rifle serial #F82xx74 I think around 13-15 years old.

Geargrinder isn't there a clip of some sort to hold it on and is some sort of bottom metal needed? What about the trigger guard?

There are tabs on the mag box that go into slots on the bottom of the action. One on each end of the feed opening.

Blind mag stocks don't have any bottom metal. The spring just rest in the bottom of the stock. I'd have to look at one of my older 110's to look at the trigger guard. I think they are the same.
