Mini 30 - do I need a "forearm liner"?

[Jeff/1911]

Folks,

This may sound dumb, but I'm used to that.

I sold my factory Ruger Mini-30 synthetic stock awhile back, planning to buy a Hogue overmolded one to use with it. I have since bought the Hogue stock, but apparently I neglected to retain the "forearm liner" described in the replacement instructions.

I have put the stock onto the rifles barreled action just fine, but am wondering...is this part important?

Does anyone out there have one I could buy?

Your thoughts - esteemed shooting brethren?

Jeff.

Well since its a plastic stock the gas should not damage it so slap her together and try it out. it should work fine but if not buy one from Gunpartscorp.

The forend liner helps guide the mechanism. If the stock is cut for it, install one.

Thanks for the help fellows - I'll try to locate one.
