RJHUB Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 If you have a Mesa stock, does it have a small gap between the receiver and the stock. I have it pressed up and tight with a nord washer but its not touching. I have a steel mesa qd ring in the gap now, but the plastic ring that comes with stock does the same.

SingleMalt Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 The stock-receiver gap is filled by the plastic spacer they provide, the other attachment points go in the slot about halfway back in the body of the stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 The plastic spacer did not fill the slight gap I'm talking about. Its still there with plastic spacer. I replaced it with the mesa qd attachment that fits in that gap. Just still a small gap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'zaster Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 When I had the Mesa stock on my 1014, there was no gap except behind the trigger guard. Can you post a close up picture? Can't see the gap you're referring to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 Gap is same with plastic spacer. Stock is tight tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'zaster Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 The gap is bigger at the bottom. Is there interference with the trigger housing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'zaster Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I had a look at my Mesa Urbino stock. No idea what would cause the gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 (edited) I think it is stopping on my recoil spring tube. Things like this drives me nuts. I will take it back apart and see whats going on. Edited May 1, 2021 by RJHUB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Yeah its hitting on metal insert/washer inside stock where it butts up to the recoil spring tube. Maybe my tube is sticking out a little further than most. I will have to cut me a few thin shims to fit in there.

RJHUB Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 No interference. I took the housing out and it will not fit flush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocturnalnature Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Try it without the sling plate. From the photo it looks like the pocket that the plate sits in is crooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 I tried it with bare stock and it bottoms out on recoil sling tube before it touches reciever. That sling plate actually is loose in the gap. Unless thats a perfect length it looks like it would have a gap at receiver or a gap in stock where screw is pushing stock forward onto tube.

Nocturnalnature Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 You should send that thing back my friend. It isn't suppose to have that gap and you shouldn't have to live with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 I'm going to call them tomorrow. It is a green one. I can see the steel washer up inside. Maybe the color ones are off spec. Also came with forends that are nice fit. Looking at some videos where the pad end was shown, looked made different than mine. Mine is solid plastic on back where bolt and washer go. Looked like the ones I saw the bolt in washer was inside cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
