Anyone have the UCIW Ultra Compact Stock?  I am thinking about one, but I wanted to get some feedback before I bought one.

I have one on 16in rifle. No issues I would like a heavier buffer , other than that it's great.

Does it feel too "small"?  Are you able to get it seated in the pocket of your shoulder ok?

I'm assuming that it's all proprietary (tube, buffer and spring), if so, what's the buffer weight?

After purchasing and using mine I started to understand just why the older fellas were still using repro's or original CAR-15 stocks. Easy to use, seats very well into the shoulder actually despite it's size.

Yes, proprietary. They offer an H2 UCIW weight for it if needed, and there's an aftermarket 5.5 as well out there from Heavy Buffers.

I put one on the A5 tube of my National Match AR.  Fits nice.

Yes, all proprietary.
I use a jp maxim scs, so not sure on the exact weights of buffer. I'll get the original buffer out and weigh it for you.

I've got a couple. They work well.  I generally extend them all the way out for shooting.

Why would I potentially want to run a heavier buffer with this?

If you run a suppresor or hot reloads it helps with a heavy buffer and spring.

Okay, i just tried to mount one on a regular OEM tube because of what you posted to see for myself. Dang, it actually works.

I just trim my go to stock to fit the UCIW tube. In this case, a CAR repro. I am also running a trimmed MFT stock on another carbine.
