Garand cheek pad nightmare
1I started lacing and torquing it from the bottom up and it keeps sliding up the stock. I searched for pix and I see some have wood screws tacking them in place. I don't want to run screws in the stock just to add a piece of linoleum.
Anyone ever tackle this puzzle before? While I was wrestling it I also wondered about potential dampness between the leather and wood. It seemed so simple at the start but now I'm ready to toss it.
Puffing up is no substitute for smarts but it's a common home remedy
