No way I can afford the going rate for authentic vynil acetate coated aluminum stocks. So what are you guys doing that gets closest?

Colt N1 at around $100. or M&A car stock $25.  I have the M&A and it's as close as it'll get to the N1.

Essential Arms is what I went with on my XM177e2 if doing an aluminum CAR stock. Not cheap, but worth it.

Just got my aluminum stock from Essential Arms yesterday. Their website isn’t great so just give them a call. I spoke with the owner and placed my order with him. Really nice guy.

Essential Arms

I had him include the proper lock nut for the Commando instead of a castle nut.

I ordered the plastic MA Parts stock. I'm doing a budget 177e2 project so it works great, perfectly flush with the buffer tube when collapsed.

I had the same experience as LUVMYGUNS. Looks great on my GUU replica.
