Have a "compact" model. Will this fit it ok. Is it hard to take off original wood stock and replace with this?

It will fit and it takes all of one minute to install. It will add a bit to its length cause you have a smaller stock to begin with but it will feel much better for an adult. It's one screw underneath the firearm and make sure the safety is in the middle so it slides out if the old stock and into the new easily.

It's really easy to replace and you will no longer need the barrel band which is a plus in my opinion.

I'm not sure what a "compact model"is? This fits the standard barrel model Ruger. It does not fit a "bull barrel" which is a larger diameter barrel. So I assume your "compact model" is the standard barrel but check with Ruger first. Taking the action out of the stock is explained in the manual, but its basically one screw to remove, loosen and remove the barrel band and lift the rifle from the stock. You should be able to see this on Utube.

I don't think so.From the end of the receiver to the end of the Hogue stock it's right at 16 3/8ths.The barrel on your rifle is 16.12"

This will work just fine for your Model Ruger. There is only one set screw holding the receiver to the stock, very simple to remove and install a new stock.

Yes, the one I recieved had the hand guard plastic wrapped in the package. If it is from Advanced Technology, then it should have one. The one thing about these stocks is they are heavier than the original stocks. If you get this stock and go to change the wooden handguard to the plastic one, look close at the pin that holds the rear end on the wooden handguard. The pin has a side that is flat and larger than the hole the pin goes in and the other side you can see the pin is inside the diameter of the hole. You should pound out the pin from the side that you can see is smaller and inside the diameter of the pin hole. Otherwise you damage the pin and can't use it to install the new handguard. I used a countersinking punch for finishing nails on a vise edge. They are nice stocks and depending on which SKS you have you may have to use a dremel tool to widen the floorplate so the magazine goes in when you are reassembling the gun. I had to remove about 1/8th of an inch from the forward magazine well opening for my Yugo SKS original magazine to go back in. The aftermarket steel and plastic magazines may take a little more grinding? Hope that helps? No one told me about the handguard pin so I almost beat mine up too bad to re-use.

M. Gabriele. Your question about stock and grip removal. To the best of my knowledge no. But I haven't tried to. It looks to me that stock is molded into the frame. Great gun to shot. Have fun and shot wisely. Dean.

If you have to struggle to pull the bolt back and must push the bolt into battery,I think that the mount is too tight. How snug a fit did you make it? If you filed the base of the mount you may have taken too much off. How easily did the bolt move before with the standard cover? I think that this is a good question for Survivor's SKS board ( www.sksboards.com ) on-line blog.

This grip will fit with alteration to the grip in the way it attaches to the bottom of the frame, the bottom screw must be shorten and a filler piece (insert) must be made for the spine. To make it work you must be handy with adaption detailing. Mine came out perfect, and is a pleasure to shoot with the larger wood grip.but your not just going to be able to screw it on. I also added lead putty in the grip to improve the balance.Anything made from wood and metal can be altered. With proper analysis, planning and tools you can do anything.

More for a wooden type stock. Mini 14. But can work. Just tried it on one if the AR's. It will work. Better for fuller stock. Mini 14, Rem 700.

I've disassembled several times and reassembled w no problems. Remove spring loader for staples. Remove all screws - chrome one last. Watch for a short dowel that fits in a slot in the "works" and slides in parallel ridges - that are molded in each half of the body. It's the only part that's not an obvious fit. Of course I had to remove a couple of jammed staples. Take a phone photo of the internals asap after separating the halves. That helps. If everything's in place - including the dowel that acts as the pivot point for the spring unit - the top half fits with use a little jiggle. Put in shiny screw first but not tight. Then the black screws - tightening as u go. Tighten shiny last. Takes 20 mins the "2nd" time u do it. And of course patience

Yes, it fit mine. The only issue was that I have a reshaped bolt handle so I had to grind away some of the material to make the notch deeper. Works fine. Only other issue is that you really need to get your face into the stock to properly see the sights, but once there it works fine, and seems to have reduce recoil some.

Going to need a little more information than that. Is it Compact? C.O.R.E series? Basically, it will fit. but you may need to get the slide milled out first.

I brought one and sent it back. It would not fit and there would be a lot to cut out. it not a real drop in kinda stock
2163835
That is what I have as well. I also have the foldable stock with shell holder and it just fits in there. You should have no problems.

Yes as far as I recall everything came that is needed to attach it. The stock has a back-plate that comes off and it's hollow; inside the hollow you push in a long metal bolt (which comes with the package). Then you tighten the bolt, replace the back-plate and you're good to go. It can take a few seconds to get the bolt lined up and pushed through the hole but that's it.

The short answer is - yes, it fits. The front sight post does not have a lot of clearance, and I've notice just a little wear on the finish of the front sight from it hitting every so slightly on the holster. That said, I've never noticed it snag or otherwise cause any issues taking the weapon out or re-holstering. The one key point to make note of is that the slide will stick out of the bottom of this model about 1/3". If you want or need the slide / barrel fully covered, this may be an issue for you.

Yes should fit fine as others have responded. The only thing I would add is that the pullout extension arms don't necessarily hang level when you fully extend them out. So if you do one setting and then have to change it for different length lumber, you do have to play with the vertical arms to keep them on the same plane as the saw table. But for the price that was a minor annoyance and the stand worked fine for my purposes. If you are a professional and/or doing lots of jobs, it may not be "minor" to be making constant adjustments.

I replaced the target thumbhole on my mini so it reduced it for me. Not sure about a traditional Ranch stock if that's what your replacing. The action dropped right in and feels great.

Jim, I had attempted to use this on a wooden stock. I have no experience on the composite stocks. It did not fit at all close to my wooden stock. I complained, they returned some answer which was not satisfactory to me. (Dealer to/from factory) I bought an alternate brand and fitted to the stock myself. Lots of wasted time !!

yes, but may need to be "fitted". Mine was very close but slightly bigger than the end of my stock. Also the holes did not line up, but that;s an easy fix, just re drill the stock to fit the pad.
