Sako Laminate stock butt pad removal.

[jespar]

Has anyone successfully removed a butt pad from a Sako 85 Laminate stock?
Thanks

They are glued on and have a couple of steel pins installed . I’ve use a heat gun to warm up the pad and then use a razor knife to slide between the stock and the pad .

Thanks a lot! Exactly what I’m looking for. So between the stock and the plastic spacer is what I need to separate?
