Bought a used model 12 VLP in .243 (circa ~ 2005/2006) with laminated stock. Looks just like the current production model 12 VLP - but it does not have the Detachable Mag Box. Instead, it has an internal blind mag box and though it looks like it should just come out of the stock, it will barely budge (parts # 5, 6, and 7 in the diagram). I know this should not be a problem to remove IF I knew the proper way to do it.

Anyone have any knowledge about how to remove it?
