I have a Lima Six. I wanted a M249 end plate with the flip up wire bail for stability.

I looked around, and getting a stock was $260 plus shipping, at the cheapest.

I went to Ohio Ordnance, and they wanted more than $90 for the plate and bail, plus shipping.

Being a cheap, yet adventurous sort, I ordered a M249 club foot stock for a Tippman 98 paintball gun. It was about $30 plus shipping

I got the stock today. It is extremely high quality. You could beat a man to death with it. It killed me to throw it away.

I removed the end plate easily. It was held in place by two screws.

I will get a standard plastic CAR stock, drill some holes, then attach the plate with screws and maybe some epoxy.

I wish I could post a pic.

Thank you for this post.
It'll be great if it's actually sturdy enough.
I was wondering how to do this with a M14 stock but I like your method better.

@FantasticPlastic , can you share the STL for the adapter?

It looks and feels just like a standard issue plate and bail. I would be shocked if it wasn’t the real thing. They can’t be expensive to make for FN.

No idea what STL means.

No idea what you mean by adapter.

I am drilling some holes, applying some epoxy, and mounting it to a plastic CAR stock.

I have one I made for an M249 butt plate that I can share. It's just a plate the size of the butt plate with a rabbet to fit up inside.

I opted for an M60 stock. Mind you, it's for an AC556 with Beta-C, but use case is similar. With a SCAR-CQB stock, a standard AR buffer tube is used for the stock. And an AR buffer tube/receiver extension just happens to fit in an M60 stock.

Apologies OP, I was confusing you with TapperMan who had posted in the main Lima Six thread.  STL is the file type for 3D-printed parts.
TrapperMan, IM sent.

I have this adapter I designed for magpul stocks.  Want to sell them eventually.  Pretty solid, adapts M249 buttplates to whatever magpul stock that is.  (Cant remember offhand)

Also designed this-

Thanks!  Trying to refine the designs so I can send some out for people to T&E, but now my printer is giving me drama.  Sigh.

FWIW Spite Werx has been prototyping clubfoot stocks specifically designed for the Lima Six, and while he started with hand bent wire his latest iteration is going to be compatible with milsurp buttplates
