MVB ARC stock? - Page 1

Anyone running an MVB ARC stock? Looks like a viable option or alternative to the Troy PDW stock without the proprietary BCG. Several on gunbroker now in the $400 range. The ability to use your milspec/standard BCG is a plus and I think this would be a great add to a PDW build.

Does this use a standard length buffer tube? I guess that would be a benefit. Otherwise, the LWRCi Ultra Compact Stock seemed like a much better option. It is definitely no longer than this, maybe shorter. Proprietary buffer and spring are not ideal but work really well on both 300 blk and 5.56 uppers for me. Very comfy to shoot.

Looks nice, too bad they want $400 for it. That's the same reason I never bought a NEA.

This. Same reason I'm going with a LWRC compact on my PDW. I can't justify the 6x-8x cost.

During Black Friday/Cyber Monday, I picked up 4 LWRCI UCIW stocks for less than the cost of one of these.

Although the UCIW may not have the visual cool factor of these stocks, they are more functional - adjustability for example.

I'm interested in one or two, but it looks like the Amazon listing is down...

I just got an ARC stock from a facebook deal. $375 shipped. It is built like a brick shit-house and looks great. Have not installed it as I don't have a QC10 lower yet.

All well and good until the link goes dormant for a few months and gets replaced with some gay porn gif.
Then someone finds it in the archives

I like the idea of these stocks, the NEA, the Troy, the MVB, the KES, etc, but I'll stick with the LWRC UCIW for 1/3-1/4 the price.

I paid 199 for my NEA NIB on a black friday deal. Love it. people always ask what it is so at least here in North Florida it is a oddity to see.

I've got the NEA on a 14.5" pinned/welded build (Aero Precision upper, lower, 15" handguard and barrel) and it's very nice with two caveats - it appears to be powder coated and not anodized and it will not fit ambi lowers. I initially bought it for a Seekins SBR I've been working on, but the rails banged up against the ambi bold release. I've looked at the Troy and it is pretty sweet. I'd love to try the MVB, but I'll be damned if I know how or where to buy one. As an aside, LWRC also makes an MP5-style collapsible that is mated to their IC-PDW - it's unbelievably robust, but only available on that SBR. There is yet another one by MMC Armory, but I've neither seen nor handled it. They supposedly will sell it outright, but I've had no luck getting them to confirm this.

If the ARC was $199 I'd buy it to replace the uclwrc.

KES picture of it fully extended is not a correct illustration

I have the nea, very sturdy, and well built, but limits the bolt carrier to their proprietary one, very compact

This MVB arc has my attention due to using any milspec bolt carrier, so piston driven uppers are no problem (No need for removing/modyfing the bolt carrier)

definitely waiting for it to be back in stock

Talked to mvb industries, this is their first commercially available product, they didnt think it would be this huge, so they stopped selling on amazon, and focused on manufacturing more to keep up with demand,

350-400 is what they are asking, they will be taking preorders and leo/military discounts are apparently available

their website is currently being re done for this particular reason...
