I just picked up a 742 and was looking to replace the stock. I found all kinds of stocks for the 7400, Does anyone know if they are interchangeable??

Buttstock wood is the same for all of the models 740, 742, #4, #6, 74, 7400, 7600. The factory will not tell you this, but they will all interchange. The finish or checkering may not match your original one however. But at this stage of the game, you will more than likely have to take what you can find.
Forearms are a different matter. All 740, 742 forearms are now obsolete, however if you replace the complete forearm, front metal plate & spacer, & the screw, then the current 7400 will fit

Second the above post. I, too, replaced a stock on a 742 and SigFan226 (I think that's right...) provided the correct bolt at the most reasonable price I found.

I have a 7400. Remington 870 20ga. stocks will fit as well. I suggest the pistol grip.
