I'm curious how you identify a genuine Hk stock. I picked one up from Hk Specialst so I'm sure it's good I'm just curious.
Also should the stock have a wee bit of wiggle room? |

The US stocks I’ve seen have had the sling plate on both sides. The HK stocks only have them on the left, at least the ones I’ve handled.

Also should the stock have a wee bit of wiggle room? I’ve wondered if the polymers have felt any different. I really hope neither have wiggle, especially of they are new. |

Looking at used HKs A2 stocks. Anyone bought used stocks and do they loosen over time? I would think so, but I know nothing about HK parts, this is my first MP5.

I bought a used german a2 stock and have a US made one. Don't know if its across the board but US stock has a rubber backing plate where german stock has steel plate. Both look and fit about the same with slight wobble.

If they both have a wobble then I’ll probably op for whatever is cheapest. |

The POF A2 stocks seem to get good reviews if you are just looking to save money.

My Hk stock polymer seems to be identical to the forend and lower, does have a wee bit of wobble but ive only noticed it when I picked it up by the stock. Near as I can tell the buttplate is polymer though

The US stock does not have the metal plate inside that makes contact with the bolt carrier, it has some kind of polymer. This is supposed to be good for 40 and 10mm. Externally it looks the same except for the square shape on the side opposite the sling attachment and the buttplate area. It also has a MM logo denoting it is made by Michael's Machines. Compared to an HK stock, the US stock does not fit as tight on the receiver as it has a bit of movement.

The butt is polymer but the end plate inside is metal on mine |

I have an older US made(Todd Bailey) A2 stock. It has a very slight wobble and has the metal plate inside. Has the sling mounts on each side. Seems of good quality, no complaints at all.

My a2 stocks from the 60s/70s have zero wobble

Yikes, the point and benefit of a fixed stock is absolutely zero wobble. I wouldn't be happy with an HK made stock with wobble, and would be trying to WECSOG a solution to unwobble it.

You have to make an effort to move it, its not like it rattles if you shake it or anything |

Yes, mine is the same. You have to hold the receiver tight and grab the buttplate of the stock and try to move it. It doesn’t rattle at all. You’d never know it handling the gun. It takes some effort to feel it.

To update I received a POF A2 stock brand new and it locks up very tight. Great stock.

Quoted: So I'm a big snob about having only OEM parts on my SP5, but I'm curious what the difference is between a German made and US made A2 stock I think (correct me if I am wrong here) The German ones have the steel insert and production date stamp on butt. Got mine on EE. Shot it today beautiful stock. |

Anyone know if these are actually German HK stocks? Pretty light on description.
