    If it is a 4.4 screw spacing action, you need a different stock, one with no opening on the bottom that is designed for the 4.4. You will need the L clip. You can buy a used stock or a new one from many different makers and retailers. Done

    I did change stocks. The new stock I have is from Stockade, LH, SA, and does not have inletting for hinged floor plate or DBM. So what I need to know, and am having a hard time finding out, is what parts I need to get for a blind mag and follower. Can I reuse the magazine box from the hinged foor plate bottom metal? What is the L clip?

    Yes.

    The L clip is a little piece that hooks into the rear of mag and once pushed into the opening acts as a retainer to keep mag box in place.
    It rest on top of the rear pillar and in between it and action.

    Thanks Clint. I'll check it out. Should have asked this before, Can I also reuse the spring and follower? Any other parts that I will need, or reuse from the original stock?

    Going back to the my original response. You will need an "L" clip. Done.
