I have a HK MK23 pistol, and I have the KWC Airsoft version.
The real slide will fit on the airsoft gun... The only thing preventing it from working is the Airsoft gas system parts. |

Looks good. How are you going to fix the button? View Quote Could just glue in an eccentric bushing... If it came down to it and they didn't offer the stock, I would probably get creative and make my own folding mechanism before dropping the money on a $400 airsoft gun just for the stock It's cool that the designs are that close though. |

HOLY MOLY! Airsoft guns cost that much? I hate airsoft just for flooding my youtube searches with 12 year olds reviewing their new toys instead of actual gun reviews. (I have to always remember to add -airsoft on my youtube searches now to filter that crap out) And now I hear they're $400+?! |

I don't know about CZ, but HK uses generic BASF pellets that come in large dog food sized bags.. Not exactly, proprietary, rocket science. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I would be really surprised if they used the same polymer. I don't know about CZ, but HK uses generic BASF pellets that come in large dog food sized bags.. Not exactly, proprietary, rocket science. Some of the airsoft stuff has pretty good build quality, the trick is separating the "good" from the "bad". In lieu of throwing down $350 for a factory Remington 870 top folder on Ebay I bought the G&P Airsoft "toy gun only" 870 top folding stock and found it to not only be of superior fit & finish to a real Remington stock but to also be manufactured out of a plastic that's a lot harder to cut into than the OEM pistol grip and steel stock arms that are a little bit thicker and also harder to cut than the OEM steel stock arms. It's built like a tank and only cost $55.00. I've had it on my 12" SBS 870 for a few months now with no issues to speak of. I'd buy one over a real OEM 870 top folder without a second thought. |

Yes $450 for an air soft is a lot but for the money its worth it. If you want anything competitive from what I have been reading your going to drop over $500. This is ready to go out of the box. One of the best out of the box air softs ever made, from what I'm told. I have never been into air soft but this will be a good trainer for the kids before I put real guns in their hands and I get a benefit of the stock if need be.
I did see somewhere that they are trying to push some sort of ban on air soft. If they don't import the stocks and something happens with a ban Im set and ready to go. I didn't mount the stock but I can see that when you close the stock while mounted it will lock into place on the EVO and the air soft. I want to repeat. Im not suggesting nor should you use air soft over REAL gun parts. Im just suggesting if we can't get these stocks this is the next best option. Buy the real thing first if possible |

My guess is that it would be cheaper for AGS or whoever to buy stocks from CZ or whoever does their plastics than to make heir own molds. |

If you guys decide to do this, you will not be 922r compliant as the ASG is china made i think.

The ATF has never come out with a concrete answer in regards to SBRs and 922R anyways.
There have been letters to individuals, but even those conflict. That ignores that the only 922r charges have been tack on charges, not stand alone. |

Sorry I have been following thisand main scorpion thread awhile missed a few days and now I see the airsoft stocks on a members gun. Are these fitting without modification? Are they locking up tight,?

I will buy one of these when there for sell but I would really love a scar17 vltor stock with an adaptor you make for it

UMP stock looks OK but I still prefer the look of the Evo stock. Lack of answers on the factory stock is the only thing keeping me on the fence about these.

Here are side by side comparison shots between the OLD/ASG hook and plastic cap stock and the new CZ magnet metal cap version on on the post samples as you can see even the mold marks match up there is no doubt that ASG either have the original molds or bought the old style from CZ, I know when I tried to buy 100 from ASG at SHOT show they said they had to look what they had in stock and I asked if they could just make more they said it was not so simple which leads me to believe the bought them in There is a guy in Belgium been posting on the CZ forum he has a Scorpion with the stock the same as the ASG hook and plastic cap on it that came from CZ on the semi SBR View Quote Thanks for posting this. I really want to wait for the "real" stock but patience has never been my strong suit. |

The way cz is responding don't hold your breath. Also when you call asg asking for a stock they treat you like your a killer. Sure as hell they are going to change the asg stock so it doesn't work on the cz. Get them while there hot

In one of the last contacts I had from ASG someone in the sales department in California decided to become involved and tried telling me that CZ expressly mention not to fit the Airsoft unit to the real weapon on there website, so far I have failed to find such disclaimer I have compared both I cannot understand why they are trying to say there is a difference |

When I emailed ASG a few months back I inquired about getting a replacement stock. I never mentioned anything about a firearm. Here is the reply copy and paste:
No we do not sell the stock separately. Also if you are intending to use our AIRSOFT EVO stock onto the CZ EVO SP-1, I would not recommend it. Although it may fit with modifications, our stock material is different and it might shatter during use with real steel version causing sharp pieces flying into your face. So we do not suggest our recommend using something intended for toys to be used on real firearms.
Best Regards, Andy Yoshida Sales Manager ActionSportGames USA, Inc. View Quote Needless to say, the response was just a legal CYA reply. No way this stock might "shatter" especially since they claim its the same polymer fibers as the factory CZ stock. He also claims its made of a different material, which is a direct contradiction to more recent advertisements. |

Nevermind the fact I bought an ASG Evo and have the stock so I can personally say this thing is built like a baseball bat.
I would bet $5,000 you could dump 1,000 rounds of 9mm back to back and not break it. |

So, if you take a Airsoft part, and then make it a gun part are you making a gun part?

That is incorrect. It is made in Denmark. |
