Hello StephenCoker,

Thank you so much for your reply. I assume by your answer that Fraser Double Rifles do have a "Through-bolt" system.

I would have a few questions,

1. What is the "hand pin"? Is this the screw under the triggerguard that comes up from the bottom and goes into the end of the top tang? Or is it something else?

2. Are the through bolts typically centered in the stock, between the recoil pad attaching screws?

3. How far from the butt end of the stock (beneath the recoil pad) is the end of the through bolt? Is it near the end, or far into the stock?

4. Does the through bolt have a turn-screw slot to loosen and tighten it, or a square head?

Here are the reasons for all my questions. The stock on my rifle with its Red rubber recoil pad looks like it has never been removed, or at least not in the last 75 years. Hence, the recoil pad with its 2 matching rubber plugs over the two attaching screws, has taken on a smooth polished vintage surface wherein the plugs are barely visible without a magnifing glass. Also, the joint of the pad to the wood has a similarly "aged" polished junction that would be difficult to rejoin.

I hate to disturb these wonderful features just to adjust the triggers. I'm considering living with the 8 & 9 pound triggers rather than disturbing the recoil pad. Or, perhaps adding a small center hole through the pad to acess the through-bolt, and then plugging that hole with something that is removeable.

I'd appreciate your answers and thoughts.
