I was just wondering if there was a status on that stock you guys were looking into for the EVO?
My Form 1 just went out today so I have some time to ponder my stock choices... would definitely prefer a slide-out model, though. Thanks! |

That is great news! Thanks for the quick reply and enjoy SHOT!
If the production gods smile favorably, would 3 months be within the scope for retail sales? Edit: Also, do you have a price point in mind or is that TBD? |

Any other adapters or just the $200 stock?
Any thought on more of a cheek piece near the rear like on an MP5 stock? |
|
I really hope these come to market. Just seeing the pic makes me want a scorpion. That stock + an MP5K looking handstop/vfg? Hell yes.

In the last 30 days we ended up moving the entire shop to a new space three times larger than the old one, and to accommodate the move and still keep shipping product we had to put all new development temporarily on hold. The prototype parts are actually on my desk, and after I get two client projects finished up this week the stock will be getting finalized. We also will have the new charging handles up for sale tomorrow, we got them all assembled this weekend. We should also have another really cool EVO part going to production in the next few weeks, but that one stays secret until it launches due to a lot of competition in the EVO aftermarket these days. |

Chop-chop!
I'm using two dowel rods and a crushed beer can as a substitute |
|
Done right is better than done ASAP..... Especially since I still need a stamp before I can even order a stock. presuming it works, I guarantee I'll be ordering one of these though. Love the look. Can't wait!

I have to ask this much:
Give me a real date. You have a client base waiting. There is no reason to fudge any numbers. We are not going away and we believe in your reputation and we obviously believe in your product. If it is going to be this time, next year, say that. I'll need to buy more dowel rods. |
|
Hard to tell from the pic... any chance that there will be a QD sling attachment point or the ability to easily add one?
And how about rubber butt pad compatibility? Don't need a thick one, it's a 9mm...but I do like the added traction they provide. Any chance it'll work with a common one, or will we have to go full custom / sand to fit? Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile View Quote We will offer an optional rubber buttpad taht screws on to the buttplate, cost will be very reasonable. There is actually a QD point on the top of the buttplate- the idea is the sling will expand/contract with the stock. One of the things I am looking at today is a way to incorporate a QD sling point on the mounting block without turning the whole thing into a big, blocky rectangle- the arm lokcing mechanism does not leave a lot of room for QD holes! |

Small loop like a CQD sling plate on the MK18 and we could use an HK hook? |

I was able to incorporate a QD point on the mounting block today, one other minor adjustment and we are good to go. |

fawesome, can't wait. Of course, I'll have to thanks to the ATF. I appreciate your efforts on this Sven. Unlike some people, I'm not all that enamored with the CZ stock. It's OK...but your collapsing stock is epic.

Files are complete, we are working up machine time right now- should know by the end of the week if we can hit our $200 or under MSRP. If we do that, it heads to production ASAP.

Do you have a photo of the stock collapsed? Thanks and love your products
|

Final version is prolly slightly different, but here's a pic from the scorp thread...

I just love this so much.
I hope you make it regardless of whether or not it's under the $200 MSRP |

Hey Sven. I'm not submitting yet, but I'm getting all relevant data together for a bunch of Form 1 SBR submissions....could you tell us the OAL of a scorp with your new stock fully extended (sans muzzle device, of course!)??? I'd appreciate it, thanks!
|
|
Putting' my money where my mouth is - bought an Evo from KYgunCO and snagged one of your 18mm to 3 lug (thanks for the 20% off!)
The OEM CZ stock is ghey, can't wait for yours |
|
Sven,
Can you provide OAL with your stock? I'd like to file a F1 Thanks! |

Ditto. It is time for me to submit one also. I'm going to try and beat 41P rush View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I can't submit for another couple of months, but since the deadline will be looming by then I'm trying to get all my form data ready to roll now. Sooooo, yeah, I'd appreciate an oal too...

Already signed up for notifications....buttttt....OAL of the scorp when extended?
|
|
|
Will check when I am in the shop on Monday- will measure with the factory muzzle device and the stock fully extended
|
|
It'd be pretty easy to do some subtraction, but the optimal measurement would be stock fully extended and NO muzzle attachment. That's what ATF is gonna want for our Form 1s.

From tip of bare muzzle to back of extended buttpad is exactly 24.0" As an aside, with the stock fully collapsed and the muzzle device installed the gun is only 17.0" long |
