On a tantal foldeing stock, how do you remove the rubber bumper? I'm going to refinish the sucker.

It's held in by a pin. You need to push that pin over enough to where one side is free of the wire stock and it will come out.

It a bit of a PITA.

Damn, that was PITA to get out. is it just as much of a pain to get back in?

Yup, even worse when you are not trying to scratch the recent refinish job up.

use a small c clamp (with tape on it) to compress the rubber/pin

I actually had an easier time getting it back in. Got it started through one side, pressed the other end of the pin with a punch into the rubber enough to line up with the hole and pushed it the rest of the way in.
