Thanks for the info. To be blunt, the "why" I want it isn't the issue... whether or not the parts would fit is the issue. I told my wife the same thing when I lifted my truck... it wasn't why I wanted to... it was which lift kit to use.
I have Remington's SuperCell recoil pad on it and typically shoot 150gr bullets w/o issue. However, at times I prefer to shoot 180gr or 220gr ammo which has a lot more kick. Secondly, my 14 year wants to use it (he's graduating from his .223), but with 180gr or 220gr its a bit too much kick for his frame. We use both in-ear and over the ear protection, so the extra noise of a brake isn't a problem... so I thought I'd install a brake to cut recoil for him, primarily. But I also wanted something removable since I wouldn't need the brake myself. $15 for a removal brake is a lot cheaper than buying him his own rifle or having my smith'ed with a threaded or permanent brake.
