1. A rifle conversion assembly operatively configured to be mounted to an action of the rifle, the action having a trigger assembly, a trigger , a magazine receiving location, a first attachment location a second attachment location; and a barrel rigidly mounted directly thereto; the rifle conversion assembly comprising: a. a main stock having an interior surface defining an action receiving chamber configured to house the action, a first action attachment location providing an opening to allow a threaded member to pass therethrough so as to engage the first attachment location of the action to be rigidly mounted thereto, a pistol grip mounting region positioned in a lower region of the main stock, a butt stock mounting region positioned in a longitudinal rearward portion of the main stock for removable attachment of a butt stock thereto, a forward attachment location positioned in a longitudinally forward portion of the main stock,b. an optic mount removably mounted to the upper region of the action, the optic mount having an upper portion forming an upper rail, the optic mount further having surfaces defining openings to allow threaded members to pass thereto to engage threaded openings positioned in the upward region of the action,c. a hand guard mount having an attachment location wherein the hand guard mount is removably attached to the forward attachment location of the main stock, the hand guard mount having a surface defining a barrel passageway configured to allow a barrel attached to the action to pass therethrough, the hand guard mount having a surface defining a circumferential surface which surrounds the barrel when the apparatus is assembled,d. wherein the forward attachment location of the main stock comprises a at least one horizontally aligned threaded voids substantially parallel to the barrel passageway, ande. a set screw is positioned in each horizontally aligned threaded void to press against the first engagement location of the action and bias the second attachment location of the action towards a rearward portion of the action receiving chamber. 2. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 1 where the attachment of the main stock and the hand guard mount to the action allows for forces applied to the main stock and the hand guard to be directly applied to the action. 3. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 1 where a pistol grip is removably mounted to the pistol grip mount region of the main stock and a butt stock is removably mounted to the butt stock mount region of the main stock. 4. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 3 wherein a hand guard is mounted to the hand guard mount such that the hand guard circumferentially surrounds the barrel of the firearm. 5. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 4 where the main stock is so configured that forces applied to the hand guard, pistol grip, and butt stock are not directly transmitted to the optic mount except through the action. 6. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 1 further comprising an action adjustment system comprising: a. a plurality of forward set screws mounted within a longitudinally forward region;b. at least one rearward set screw mounted within a longitudinally rearward region of the main stock;c. wherein the forward and the rearward set screws are operatively configured to engage the action to position the action with respect to the main stock prior to rigid attachment of the action to the main stock. 7. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 1 where main stock comprises an interior horizontally aligned extension which is configured to engage and be received within a corresponding horizontally aligned recess in the rearward portion of the action forming a second attachment location of the action to prohibit vertical movement of the main stock in relation to the action. 8. The rifle conversion assembly as recited in claim 1 where the hand guard mount further comprises a threaded member and the hand guard comprises a threaded barrel nut removably attached to the hand guard mount and a hand guard is removably attached to the threaded barrel nut.
