I ordered one of these months ago. It's finally arrived today.

Installed on a 7.5" SBR I built a few years ago.

The way it was-



Here's the new PDW stock-



And here it is on the gun-





The stock is well made and functions flawlessly.

It took awhile to get and then took awhile to get here. I didn't realize all the time it took to getbthru customs and then to me. This was also the first time I had to write UPS a check for a brokerage fee when it arrived.

I thought about that while I was doing the assembly. I'm going to the ATF tommorrow and ask that question. In theory it still can be the same length depending on where the stock is set.

fuckthatsasexybitch.




If I knew 100% that it would run with 300BLK, I'd be trying to buy one.


OP, can you give us a rough estimate of what the total cost (item, taxes, etc) was?

Does yours lock all the way open and all the way closed? Does the bolt hold open work?

These are the problems I'm having with my NEA stock... Got one of the first ones, don't want to send it back for having to pay customs again....

When I first installed it no. I removed some of the plastic on the buffer and it functions flawlessly now.

No need to contact the ATF.

The gun could be returned to original with no issues.  The only time it would ever become an issue is if you wanted to sell the gun in that format and you submitted a Form 4 that didn't match what the NFRTR shows (IE you didn't copy the numbers from your Form 1).

Looks killer by the way.

I'm just going to shim the buffer tube out a little, won't be noticeable. I'd be all over it already but the lower it was on had to be reconfigured as a long range rifle in a hurry for a 400 yard Appleseed class. I'll get back to it, it's going to be an integrally suppressed carbine until we get SBR's here.

NEA PDW

I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

It might require an adjustable gas system due to the bolt/carrier being one piece and the weight being different than what's in your gun now.

That's pretty cool. I really really like the aesthetics of the honey badger. too bad it requires a proprietary receiver. This is a pretty decent compromise though.

Why am I going to Canada to buy this?  Why can't someone make something similar here?  They've sold a shitload of them and I am ready to buy so it isn't a demand problem, all those guys at the top and bottom of this screen need to get on the ball.

Well, there is a domestically made stock similar to this, but there's a catch.

It's made by Troy.

ETA: I've kept my feelings regarding the Monroe deal to myself because I have some acquaintances and friends at Troy, they are good people so I'll continue to keep my opinions to myself.

Their stock seems pretty awesome and solves some of the issues people have with the NEA stocks, FWIW.

Yeah, kinda. It's a tight fit. Fully collapsed it also bumps against BAD levers too.

The selector is a little tight. Mine is collapsed to the first lock. No interference with the bad lever.

The stock expands clear of the pin; the issue is with the buffer being integrated into the carrier, the upper cannot pivot on the forward pin. It has to be assembled at one time, meaning the buffer must fit into the receiver extension at the same time the rear takedown pin tab in the upper has to seat in the lower. It's a tricky, awkward fit.

ETA: Once seated, it works well.

ETA2: I am using an old Eagle Arms pre-ban lower receiver with mine on a super light 16" DD barreled upper.  So it could just be my lower is old.

I hope it runs for you, If long term reliability is comparabale to a regular bolt system I might get one. It looks like the Key on the Bolt carrier is not staked.
