    Cheek riser fastener terminology

    I have a 1" cheek riser on order from Choate for the tactical stock. My strap-on riser is not working for me for various reasons. I'm looking for a threaded fastener that will allow removal and replacement of the riser for cleaning. What is the terminology for what I'm looking for to accomplish this? Point me in the right direction. My searches came up with fasteners like those in the attached link. Thanks.

    That's what I used on mine.

    I approached a bit different. I cut the stock (Model 12) kinda like the Boyd's AT-one.

    The Choate tactical is plastic. Cutting it is above my skill level. The link below is the part that I ordered. I have a Kydex wrap-over adjustable from a previous stock. I want to avoid drilling the stock. Not to mention, the large adjustment knobs annoyed me. Thanks for your input though.

    I do understand the problem. I tried other ways, including the lace on leather cheekpieces and I also tried modifying the replaceable plastic cheekpieces from Choate and Magpul like the one you posted. I shaped them and then used some velcro to secure them None really worked the way I wanted. I also don't like the big knobs so I use set screws that tighten down below the lever of the threaded insert on my setup.

    You could use a Kydex cheekpiece and apply velcro on both sides to position and attach?

    Worthy considerations. It occurred to me that the threaded inserts are screwed in and not pressed in. I plan to try to find samples locally to see what I can come up with. I've used the neoprene sleeves with foam inserts on both wood and plastic stocks. They work well on the wood stock, not well on the plastic. Shooting prone, the foam inserts slide off the top of the buttstock, despite a tight sleeve. Thanks for the feedback.

    YW. The threaded inserts are found at any hardware store.
