how hard would it be to remove the stock part? that would be great for a trunk pistol if the stock part can be easily removed and tossed away. A Pistol Approved Version is on the way!

I placed an order on Maxim's website on the 22nd... No status updates. I called on the 25th to try to upgrade the shipping because the website only offered free shipping. No call back. On the 26th I sent them a PM on FaceBook, no reply. Not sure what's going on over there, but for a $400 dollar stock I would hope for better customer service. Really wanted to take my new build out for a test drive today. I would buy this from a 3rd party that has it in stock if you want it expodited.

They were unresponsive to my attempts to reach them as well, though I did not try through FaceBook. I'd written them off, but found a local individual selling a used one at a reasonable price. Also, I wanted to experiment a little (used the short JP SCSS in a LWRCI short buffer tube on a 300BLK and built my own heavier captured spring sys for the Maxim Def stock) and the local Guy's sale enabled that. I like the stock and my tinkering with the components has worked perfectly, but I'm not sure I'd buy another based on your experience and my own through (admittedly limited) attempts at communication. They could be a great bunch and may have just been really busy, but are some really nice options out there to consider. I do need to qualify the above by saying that there is nothing wrong with the product. It is a near perfect execution of this type of short PDW stock. I might have made the butt plate just a bit longer top to bottom, but that's probably just a bit of nit pickery on my part. |

Did you ever contact them to just cancel your order? Or did they simply never even try to complete it?

I never attempted the order after not being able to get an answer to my question, so I wasn't as invested as you are. It was easy enough for me to consider moving in a different direction and I only worked myself back into the Maxim stock when I found one locally almost by accident. I hope you get your stock and find it worth the trouble. |

I have a Safety Harbor KES PDW, HK Parts PDW and a Maxim Defense CQB PDW. I got to mess with Tory's newest PDW at NRA Show and out of all the PDW's I have first hand experience with Maxim Defense is the best....IMO. |

I made contact today. Apparently there's only one guy processing orders for them and he's been out of the country... Anyway I was told that I should have it by Friday. I have the Troy Tomohawk standard on one of my current builds right now. The catch for the buffer system that makes it compatible with a standard BCG is finicky, but it works. Overall I like the Troy, but not having to deal with the takedown issues is what drove me to the Maxim stock. I'll keep the Troy on a Safe Queen that I don't have to clean often, or take down much. My next buy is the FosTech Echo trigger.

Is this better than the Battle Arms Vert stock?

I don't personally have any experience with the BAD stock. It looks pretty awesome though. I'd love to get one and do a side by side review of it vs Maxim's & Troy's. Cost wise It seems spendy for something with so many BCG limitations. But takedown looks just as simple as Maxim's. It's an OZ heavier than Maxim's. And it is about 1/2" shorter than Maxim's.

I have two of these stocks on SBR's and have been very impressed with them.
One is a 300 BO 10.5" noveske upper, the other on a LWRC 8.5" PSD. Both are great. couldn't be happier with with. |

If I ever figure out how to post pictures here with my iPhone I'll you guys what I'm talking about with the Troy stock. It works with my Odin works BCG. But you need three hands to take the upper off when using it.

I have a Maxim PDW stock and it is running great with 5.56 and 7.62x39 with their customized JP captured buffer system (standard version). I chose Maxim b/c it will run with standard carriers as well as function in 9mm setups (if you get the 9mm buffer system). I had one fail to fire during its first range session but once I got it home I noticed the buffer tube backed off two or so rotations as I didn't torque it enough. Next range day after properly torqued, I had zero issues and the ejection pattern between 3 and 4:30...

Opinions vary but the Maxim CQB with the JP Silent Spring is worth the money. My SBR will be almost an exact clone of the photo and it'll have a complete 300 BO upper - almost identical. Next stop is a 9mm upper that uses Glock mags. Everything except the 9mm will be completed within a week from now. This was my inspiration:

It's cool & exceptionally well made. Next stop - binary trigger. I also am building an almost exact duplicate of the upper in 300 BO. Looking for a good used folding pistil grip and a complete 9mm upper w/BCG. The shorter the barrel the better,

Price compared to a regular stock is definitely higher, but if you want lowest price for same function then stick to forged receivers and standard m4 ARs. My SBR will be almost an exact clone of the photo and it'll have a complete 300 BO upper - almost identical. Except for the stock (not a maxim defense?), barrel (recommend 8" for 300BLK which would then be a different hand guard length too), and I'm not sure that sight would be usable with that low mount... Here is preview photo with the right stock, an 8" barrel and SLR hand guard that should be in the maxim defense booth at SHOT.

I am pretty happy with the stock. 550 rounds without a problem. It's got the standard spring/buffer, contemplating the JP Silent though. |

I'll add this one.
The stock wasn't the 9mm variant which is ok because I'd made my own heavy version of a captured spring system. The JP Spring system that came with the stock went into a short LWRCI receiver extension that I used on a 300BLK SBR. I had to fab a short spacer to make it the right length, but it works great. |

Here is my take on the Honey Badger:
8.5" FN CHF 300blk Barrel with SLR IonLite rail and Robar NP3plus BCG, BCM Gunfighter charging handle, Aimpoint Micro with Scalar 1/3 cowitness. Cerakote Cobalt on the upper, rail, lower, and stock interface. Cerakote Elite Black on everything else. V7 titanium gas block w/ inconel tube, ti mag catch, ti safety, ti takedown pins, ti ejection port cover. Wating on SSA trigger, BUIS, and I was out of bolt catch springs.
