AGP,

That's pretty frickin' sweet!  Any plans to build one with a sling attachment that would work with the stock folded?

It is. Long story, but the threads on that can have been problematic since day one.


Wow, that seems like a bad idea.  If it's the threads on the can, why not send it back to AAC?

This and the receiver to mount braket interface with the stock folded. Looks like a nice package. Even better if it had provisions for a rubber butt plate. Does it?

It would be awesome if it could use CTR risers and butt plates... wonder if there would be legal issues with having it compatible

I'll do some more testing on that but right now I shot it a little with it folded just to see if they would clear and in those 8-10rnds. it seemed fine. So if you were in a pinch and it was folded, it should lay down some lead to get you out of a jam.


Thanks

You could make a very simple 1 piece molded riser that clicked on with QD interfaces to the 2 QD points on the stock body.

I'd like to see the stock with the buttpad installed........still on the fence on this one.  I think I might like it with a buttpad and cheek rest.

Well, tomorrow is the big day.  This stock gets delivered to the first 556 customer.  I sold my CTR set up to pay for it so I hope it is as great as it looks.

Great stock!  This thing is rock solid when extended.  It really feels like a solid non-folding buttstock.  There is even a big difference between that solid feel and the slight play in the collapsing AR style tube riding stocks.  The install was straight forward and easy (took 3 minutes or so?).  

It is pretty light.  The entire assembly (receiver plug, screws, stock body, etc.) weighed only 11 ounces on my digital postage scale.  I would think that folks who want to run this stock with a heavy railed hand guard and bunch of crap hanging off of it may need to add a buttpad and riser of some sort to help with the forward weight bias.  Of course, you could just take all of the heavy crap off the front of your gun and use lighter 552/ 551 style hand guards.  If you use this stock and some of the lightest hand guards (MFI's 552 type or cut down 550's are lightest) and a non-compensating muzzle device (pretty much any flash hider other than a heavy Levang or KX3) and any BUIS you'll have an SBR that weighs only 6.7 lbs.!

There is no wiggle when folded to the side.  It stays there by friction/ tension in the hinge.  

The stock looks good on the 556.  This is a great and inexpensive alternative to the option of trying to get a classic lower.  Thank you for the great product.

Looks like a winner for a folding stock option.  I am in the sandbox now and will be getting one of these before I leave next year to put on my 556 bought in 08.  I have a Magpul 93B stock on it now and that is a heavy stock makes the rifle much more heavy than stock.  Congratulations on building a better mousetrap hope you sell lots of them.  Any plans for FDE or OD?

Acomplice it looks good! I'm curious it looks like there' s not much room for a buttpad to be installed with you charging installed.  It looks like it would be ok, with the stock charging handle what are your thoughts?

I'm on the fence with this stock probably because it doesn't look complete. I think the manufacturer should install a buttpad I think that would help a lot.

IMO!
