    Blind Mag to Detachable Box


    Hi can you cut the bottom out a blind mag stock and turn it into a detachable box set up?

    Thanks Dean

    Yes, with a dremel tool and a mill bit. This stock is a Boyds thumbhole. If you go slower than I did you can probally lessen the gaps between metal and wood, but it works.

    Bottom metal came from a centerfeed 300 wsm accustock. I just put the Stevens internal box mag onto the bottom piece of the bottom of the 300 detachable mag. I started with clamping the bottom metal in place and scribing the outline on the stock. Then using the mill bit just kept eating away at the wood until it fit while checking for operation/feeding. I also had to remove some wood from under the trigger guard to fit the bottom metal in.
    Hope this helps.

    You could bed the mag well and it would look normal.
