Did you get a Boyd's stock that has the holes for the stock liner, or is it one that uses bedding?
In any event, you will need to remove the ferule from the end of the norinco stock and install it onto the wood stock. Some boyd's stocks use liners, some don't.

you will most likely need the metal liner from the old stock.If it is the wood one.don't know what is in the plastic ones.I also had to find a tap that was the right size for the liner as in my case for the two I have the metal liner was two piece spot welded to to each other and it seemed like they tapped them before they spot welded them so needless to say had a h_ll of a time geting the retainer screws to go throught the second part of the liner and they will be a really tight fit in there, which is good but it was a fight.Butt plate fit but it also was tight fit had to use rubber hammer but when everything was in place fit was great. good luck and enjoy
