ORIGINAL: frontier gander
Actually i had to have a gunsmith install mine. Im not sure if the stock design is the same, but my screws went in at an angle. With the cva optima, thats more than likely a hollow stock and will require a bit of work if the screw angle was like mine. Luckily i had the solid stock
Or a Slipover limbsaver is also an excellent way to go! Slip it right over your original.
I didnt read the original post but if it is a optima or optima pro its real easy to replace. I already had to replace mine with the concrete at the range tearing it up. Two screws in the end, screw into a plastic frame inside thepad. By the way, I ordered a cva pad from either midsouth or midway...cant remember. I think $9 and change and your in business.
