The trigger plate is removed by first removing the trigger guard, one screw then turn the guard counter-clockwise and remove. The front of the guard is just notched into the trigger plate. Then you'll see two screws you'll have to remove and then trigger plate itself. The trigger plate is pretty tight so you'll have to carefully work it to get it free. There is no other screws you have to remove except for the draw bolt itself to take the stock off.
