Got it all tore down again to get ready to do the internal parts swap and hone-deburr.I took it a little farther and completely removed the butt stock stuff.I've started to mod that so it will be removeable like the barrel.Now I'll need a 22" brief case to hide it all in. The part behind the beveled area will be cut off and an adapter made so it all slides back together.

Well, I'm committed now. (Or should be committed)Started the cut and got half way when the batteries died in my Versapak Saw.It's a 3 to 6 hour charge time for that old thing but I'll give it an hour only.It runs a bit slower with an incomplete charge and makes it easier to control plus doesn't melt the plastic.
You can see where I'm cutting the stock and the Saw I'm useing.I also looked close at the big hunk of metal on the original barrel end.Was hopeing I could use it for the Steel Storm as a 'quiet it downer'.But it's just a big hunk of steel.
A couple hours with needle nose pliers and a wood chisel and the bulk is removed ready for dremel work.The black stub is simulating where the adapter will be.
what is up your sleeve now!
All grinding and sanding is done for the removable stock so far.I'll start on the adapter next. I'm undecided on what I'll use.I'm thinking an aluminum tube with a fiberglass wrap which I'll grind/sand to fit.
I'm working on a recoil absorber that will fit in the Stock adapter.That would allow the main part of the AG to recoil but not put the full force back into my shoulder.It doesn't recoil all that bad but it's something I wanted to mess with a bit.
