WOW!, Keenan . . . . I think you should find a new “gunsmith”!
Sounds like a “bubba” repair to me!
He must have used a longer-than-necessary stock bolt, with an ill-fitting thread, then a tube to make up the difference in the original stock!
I’m thinking the bolt loosened, then fell out completely . . . .allowing the stock to come back the “6 inches”!
(Though, if the bolt COMPLETELY unscrewed, I’d think the butt stock would fall completely off!)
In any event, you need the correct length bolt, WITH THE CORRECT THREAD!
Here’s hopping the female thread in the receiver is not ruined, or the interior of the stock hole chewed up too bad!
Might need extra washers to compensate for a “chewed to deep” stock hole.
