removing mag from tupperware stock

I recently bought a Boyds thumbhole stock to replace the tupperware stock on my 10fxp, I need advice on safest way to remove the mag from the tupperware stock without damaging it. I intend installing a removeable mag later but right now finances force using the old one. Thanks

Stick your finger in the magazine like you would a round of ammo. Then use a small screwdrive and stick it in the slot at the front of the mag and pry it up while pulling up with your finger in the mag. Pops right out. Spring and follower flies out too. But it wont go far. And keep your eye out for the metal L tab. You will need it to hold the mag in your next stock.

Good luck!

+1 just did it about 15 minutes ago. Use a long screw driver so you can have some room to wiggle it.
