Bolt size on H&R Pardner stocks

Just a FYI for those who have a 12, 20, or 410 single shot Pardner, the socket needed is a 9/16 inch, you will also need a long extension on the ratchet as the bolt is at least 9 inches deep into the stock.

I guess my 3/4" guess was off a little.. ...its been such a long time since I removed one of mine.

No problem, i was looking down the hole and i couldn't tell what size it is, i called H&R customer support, they said it is between 7/16 through 3/4, so much for customer support, then i watched a shit load of you tube vids on all gauge single shot Pardners, and one guy said that a 9/16 bolt was used on all single shot Pardners, he was doing a tear down on a 20ga.

In all fairness to the customer support, I think there may have been a time where H&R/NEF may have used different sized bolt heads. There are a couple models that use an Allen head.
