As far as recent production stocks, get a gray one and not a black one. The gray ones have the solid foam filling while the black ones just have a plastic insert.

Supply on the EE of USGI A2 stocks has been limited lately. And when you find them it's often as a package deal since people are swapping them for collapsibles.
It's probably easier to just buy a complete set off a vendor like PK for $65. Rub it with some CLP and it'll look fine. I'd avoid Armalite since the one I got from them wasn't foam-filled USGI-spec but instead a cheap insert. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

I just picked up a stock kit from RRA, $60 free shipping. Foam filled, plastic trap door but seems plenty rugged.

My BCM A2 stock I bought last year was the same way. |

My go to for butt-stock assemblies is Fulton Armory, I use their A1 stocks but have assembled rifles with A2 stocks. Yes the FA stocks are more expensive but the hardware is good quality even though the butt-stocks are hollow. For A1 stocks I apply a 1/2" nose shortened 1/16" thick Cheek Eez behind an extended charge handle, gives a comfy weld for scopes with around a 4" eye relief. The roomy hollow stocks come in handy for tools, parts, sandwiches and sodas. e-mail just received says Fulton Armory is having a Halloween Sale.
