Abstract: A replacement gunstock for shortening the overall length of a firearm with a barrel and breech mechanism and a separately attached trigger assembly. The replacement gunstock has a forehand portion with an elongated, hollowed-out depression through which a firing rod passes interconnecting the trigger in the trigger assembly with a sear mechanism in the breech.

Abstract: A shock absorber removing tool is disclosed. The tool consists of a breaker coupling threaded to a solid plug insert, with a portion of the solid plug insert retained by the inner surface at one end of a tubular handle. The end breaker coupling opposite the solid plug insert is threaded onto the threaded external end of the shock absorber, and the breaker coupling, solid plug insert, and tubular handle cooperatively define a rigid lever arm rigidly attached to the external end of the shock absorber. The tool removes a shock absorber from a mounting bracket on a vehicle by using the lever arm to bend and thereby break the shock stem.
