Changing forestock

[BC Mike]

When I bought this Mossberg 500 it came with this set up and included the original furniture which I want to put on. Exchanging the pistol grip & stock are straight forward but how do you change out the forestock?

Thanks,
Mike

Need to unscrew the magazine tube.

put reciever and tube in freezer, then take it out and warm up the reciever, should make unscrewing it easier.

And then there is a way to disconnect the forestock from the tube and replace it with the wooden factory piece? Sorry I've never had much to do with shotguns before.

theres a ring if you want to just switch out the grips.

Simple unscrew and slip off.

Take off the barrel, youll be able to see what Im talking about.
