I have a Galil, and an AMD with an Ace stock.. and I want to wrap the stocks with paracord.
Awhile back, I saw that several people have done this. Please post pictures of yours and give any tips and tutorials you might know of.
I think it would be a lot more comfortable with the stock wrapped, and also looks good.
I bought quite a bit of paracord in different colors/patterns last year to do this, but just now getting to it.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Did it to my UF and eventually took it off and it left marks on the finish and i never really could get it off.

That was a good read!
One tip I found on there was to wrap the stock with tennis grip tape first, before the paracord. It keeps it from coming loose or shifting, wicks away moisture, adds a little padding, comes in colors and is cheap!
The stuff is all over ebay and I am ordering some. I will report back with pictures when I am done. Thanks again for the help!
