I have one of these that I'am going to do-dad so to speak i'am going to order a pistol grip buttstock for it as well as heat shield and a shot shell holder. I was wondering if anyone makes an extended magazine tube or mag tube extention for it? Also how do I get the stock buttstock off this gun? I've tried bolt buster and a screwdriver but nothing it won't budge. I have a drill thats reversable what if I get a flat head screwdriver bit for it? This won't strip the bolt will it? Thanks for any help guys

Nope. The design prevents installation of an extension.

Don't use the drill, it's more likely to damage the bolt head, not strip the threads.
To remove, get a large screwdriver blade bit for a interchangeable
bit screwdriver.
Put the bit into a socket wrench and use this to break the bolt free. The bit goes into a small socket, and the socket is attached to the extension bar, and is then put into the socket handle.
You can also use a screwdriver that's set up to use a "cheater" handle, or a screwdriver with a shaft that can be gripped with a Crescent wrench.
Any one of these methods will give you the leverage to break the bolt free.

No on the extension, but you can get a brand new one with the long mag for about $200.:D
To remove the stock, I'm assuming you've already removed the recoil pad. Get a ratchet with an extension and the right sized socket. I think it's a 1/2 inch, but I can't really remember. Use that to remove the bolt. Trying to use a long screwdriver will only result in goofing up the head of the bolt and a lot of frustration.
