    Grip cap removal?


    What is the best way to remove the indian head logo that covers the screw on the the grip cap without damaging it? I removed one a long time ago and seem to remember it was glued in. It's been several years and I cant remember how I did it. I want to install a spacer under it and would like to get it right the first time. It's an older stock for a flat back.
    Thanks BHJ

    Most of those snap in, Ive never had any luck getting them out without messing them up. I think the last one I changed I got a new one from Brownells to replace it. The Remington diamonds was the same way.

    The lack of responses is probably because everybody has had the same experiences I have had.

    I used a soldering iron placed on the cap wait a few seconds and it came off with no damage.
