Good fixed stock option coming Magpul for post-ban rifles....

Moe Fixed Stock
So I was looking around at stock options for a pre-ban complete I'm building up, and I came across this little do-dad from Magpul.
I was thinking that since most of the Country still has some semblance of a 2nd amendment, or at least an attempt, that there wouldn't be much air-time on this one, especially in all of the other stuff that is vying for attention after Shot2012.
I do know that some builders like the look, and functionality of a straight up A2 or A1Retro, I know that for me I prefer an A2 to a fake collapsible stock, but I'm 6'5" so what fits me, doesn't fit a lot of people, and a lot of folks blind-pin a good functional stock on a Carbine lower receiver extension at such and such spot...... and, Robert's your Father's Brother.
This would seem to be another option for those of us building Post-Ban config rifles in our little Tri-Fecta-State of suckage gun laws. It's got some nice features from this detailed line drawing that I know I miss in an A2, storage, QD attachment points, side oriented sling loops, etc.
I know this wasn't readily apparent to me as I was perusing the multitude of new gun gear from this year's Shot Show pics/coverage, but when I did find it on magpul's site it did pique my interest. I'd like to see one up front, there are of course plenty of other options out there for fixed stocks, but hey I'm just saying this might be of interest to those of us who don't have stacks pre-ban lowers.
I know this probably belongs in a tech section or AR discussions, but seeing how there is a real need for something like this in our lovely region I thought I'd post this here. Have at it...or not.
