Ruger American Predator Owners

I'm trying to remove the stock from my rifle and am told I need to remove the magazine latch. Apparently the removal is easy but the reinstall takes a special tool?

Anybody have a picture of this tool? Some say it came with some of the rifles.

Any tips would be appreciated also!

Thanks!

Anybody?

Anybody?

I have one but have not had to take it apart yet! I just looked in the box mine did not come with a special tool

this is what you are looking for

when I need a spacer I find an old deck of cards allows me to make any height I want and a wrap of masking tape keeps them together

there was a predator with a standard mag this is the AI or AR style mag

to re-assemble

if you didn't have the tool I bet with a short section of the right size copper wire you can make a slave pin to work for you done it many times cut the wire give it a tiny bend to hold the spring in the part , then push a punch through nocking the slave out and then drive the pin back through pushing the punch out.

Thanks guys! Big help!

Mine didn't come with the tool..
