I was about to buy an aluminum CAR stock in grey from Retro Rifles and thought Id ask first. Is this the kind if operation that will take my money even if they don't have it? Will it take months?  I tried calling them, but their answer says they don't have time to answer the phone. I guess I know the answer, and I know its the hope that kills you. Is Tony's the same kinda outfit?

Don’t know about those two but here you go:

Double Star

They make them in batches so they will be back eventually

Yeah, Im on that list too. Thank you.  I got one back in November(?) for a C7 I put together and now want to replace a poly one from Brownelles I have on an A2mid length carbine I put together.
The poly ones just don't cut it once you get an Al one.

And thanks for the link to the update thread.

If your looking for a grey anodized uncoated CAR stock, retro rifles seems to be the only ones that offer it.

Yeah I just wanted to talk to somebody to confirm it’s actually there to be bought. I guess I’ll roll the dice, and see how it shakes out.

I ordered a lot of parts from them a few months ago for my A1 build. Shipping took about a week or so to ship, but I got everything I ordered that said in stock. Had and issue with a pistol grip they sent me, poor quality with chip in it. I emailed them and got a response back fairly quick and they made good on it. Sent me another one free of charge that was excellent condition for a Colt original. Good people to deal with in my opinion.

I've ordered from tony's and had good service, sometimes a little slow in shipping but it arrived ok. Retro Rifles... Stay away from them unless you like to do CC disputes. There are a fair amount of people who will tell you the same here.

I called Tony's this morning. Spoke with A very pleasant lady who assured me they were in the building and that mine will ship tomorrow. Took my order over the phone and promised me an email tomorrow.
I feel pretty good about it, Ill let y'all know.
