Damn dude, thats balls.
I’ve been thinking about taking mine to some of the guys I work with who do metal fabbing. I’m curious to see if they could make a metal cap or just two side plates to actually give the little rivets a chance at holding something.
The fact yours makes rifle #3 or 4 that’s had this issue, makes me want to do that even more.
I wish I would have done this. I just used a screw and a washer. I also glued my wood screw, so I guess there isn’t any removing it.
Oh well, I only plan on removing it if it breaks anyways.
TI, please make some upgraded/ reinforced stocks for purchase - I’d happily buy one rather then worry about my rifle.

How many rounds have you put through it? I had a good day with mine yesterday. 200 rounds so far and no issues. Nails 4 inch plates at 100 yards all day. Still solid. I love this thing and I'm just gunna run it.
It’s a bit tricky but if you’ve got the Russian style AK/SKS pattern sling, you can fit the clip through the buckle to disassemble, loop sling through stock loop, through leather keeper and back through the buckle, then clip the spring clip to the front sling loop.
Be advised; I can put a lot of pressure on my slings when ducking through brush, or crossing fences - lots of both on my family property. I’d be concerned about snapping the butt off this rifle while doing that. Hence, I’ll be carrying mine rather then slinging it.
Big ole zero rounds through mine. And if you treat it like glass it may very well last you a lifetime. If you treat it like a rifle I doubt it'll survive very long. Anyways heres a pic of the break on mine for those that were asking.

Yup. Lower pin acting like a pivot point again.
That 2mm of wood isn’t going to hold the stock on. There isn’t an easy way to fix that crack either.
If TI drop tested these, I’m wondering if they all failed.
Actually my butt plate has a nick, so what he mentions can very well be possible, mishandling during packing.
Long story short Ti will replace your rifle if it breaks, you can also do the reinforcing mentioned by Bfiles without voiding warranty assuming you drill a pilot hole to avoid cracking the stock putting in the screw.
I applied good amount of steel epoxy according to your recommendation, I think this is the best I can do and I'm done messing around the stock. I still have the concern of the brass screw since it is so soft can't even survive under my hand torque. Feel like it won't provide much support at the end of the day but at least better than nothing. Could be because of the quality of that screw is too bad.
120 rounds of norinco copper washed white box ammo, wish I hadnt sold as much as I did - anyway
check out these photographs. the stock was tight to the receiver before firing.
after firing, at the end of the day, we noticed play in the stock, where you see the gap in the first picture
upon further inspection inside having removed the recoil spring , you can see there is a crack the width of the stock .
emailed TI saying I can provide said pictures, so. yah. what yall thing they gonna do/is gonna happen with this? rifle kinda not serviceable with stock as is now broken from shooty lol

Seems what all it takes is only 120 rounds, anyone fired more than that and did a inspection to see if you have a gap in between your stock and frame?
The stock issue starts to arise. I bet rifle replacement won't address the design problem. Need to get a reinforced stock.
