Hello Chuck.

What Kind of "Fighting Butt" not "Removable" but what about, Cork(FBCC-1), Straight Tapered Cork(SGFBCC-1), EVA(SPG-EC) Straight Tapered EVA(SGFBE-1), Nylon, Aluminum(PBAF2-G, AUB1-S)?

And maybe more to choose from.


Tight Wraps.

if the fighting butt is like the one in the video yet has a hole measure the depth of the hole Find a drill bit that fits the hole
Then get the next size up and - buy hand drill it out Bin there cork is soft and it can be done
If too large wrap thread over the blank to take up the extra space -- In Wide Diamonds so the glue adheres to the blank and not JUST the thread
