I know I'm pushing it here, but can you please divulge any more details?

Sorry top secret, too much of a PITA to share for free I will tell you a RRA 6 position receiver extention was used.

All right, I'll settle for that.

Finished Project.
I noticed today, that the dials are large enough toe be turned even with a sling in the real sling loop.

Looks great. With it that short you might as well not have the adjustable cheekpiece though unless you're running a side charging upper right?

Very nice

These aren't available to the general public yet are they?

Wonder what I would have to pay an industry partner to get me one of these....

I have no use/need for an adjustable cheekpiece.

This is just what I'm looking for.

A stock that makes it easy to use high mounted NV optics (ala AN/PVS4).

Schweet !

On the cheekpiece / charging handle issue,

Magpul actually offers 2 versions of the stock, one for .223 rifles, and one for .308 rifles.

The one for the .308 has a slightly shorter / smaller cheekpiece so that you can pull the charging handle all the way to the rear with the cheekpiece up.

I have one on my DPMS .308, and it works just fine. I actually have the cheekpiece elevated almost to max because my scope is a 56mm, so it sits pretty high up.

I will try to post some pics, my .308 is currently in pieces, I am having some work done on it.

On the availability, don’t quote me but they should be hitting the streets any day. Impact Guns already has them on their site:
PRS Stock
They are currently listed as “Out of Stock” for now.

As soon as they do go public, I will be putting one of these stocks on all of my “Long Range” ARs.

Thanks MAGPUL!

WOW!! Thats a killer price! Less than a SOPMOD!

Here is a pic of one of my "Long Range" .223s with a PRS. The scope on it is a 56mm on high rings, so having the cheek height adjustment is great to help with proper sight alignment. It is also easy to raise my head position slightly to use the ATN Red Dot above the scope, and I can still maintain a cheek weld.

This type of stock has definitely been way overdue!

Thanks,
“Capt Richardson”

Should be just a few more weeks now!!

This stock is a PERFECT MATCH for NV OPS as well!

Hope this helps.

Thanks Vic, I am starting to get the shakes. If you are going carry these keep me in mind (as it well be an immediate sell). [email protected]

Tag for when these are available!

But the question is, did this modification make it to the production stocks, or are we going to see a
B model in the near future?

Big Bore's mod is more for his personal tastes than something we would concider for the PRS as it is different from the mission we envisioned for the PRS.

We do however think Big Bores concerns are valid but these requirments would best be delt with in the M93 replacement known as the UBR stock. This will have shorter/broader LOP along with non adjustable cheek weld and solid lock up.

Sorry no pics of the UBR yet as we just finished the locking mech and still need to work out the styling. There is also a third stock called the CTR which fills another mission which we should have some pictures of in January.

What mission does it fill?

Will the UBR use a standard reciever extension or a proprietary unit?

BigBore, sounds like another opportunity for offering a customized new part ala the RRA triggers. Any thoughts with regards to this?

Too much work - wait for the UBR.

How much of the buttplate is dead weight? Or conversely, how much of the stock interior is vacant. This may seem like a strange enquiry, but I'm looking for a place to store CR123A batteries.

I can fit two in the MIAD grip, but need at least three just for M9 illuminator replacements. Perhaps a plastic clip might attach to the inside of the buttplate or it cold be machined to include a pocket? Depending upon the NVD chosen, there may or may not be a need for additional cells. I suppose there might be some accessory storage tube that mounts to a RAS on the market I'm not aware of. Any thoughts?
