I have the ace pistol in 5.56, but I'm not a fan of the folding brace that comes as standard- I'd like to be able to adjust the LOP and have a push button folding mechanism instead of the brute force "push down" one.

My rear receiver block is held in with 2 roll pins- all the adaptors I've seen have one central roll pin- see pic
Has anyone changed out their stock or got a lead on a block that would fit ?

New owner myself and same issue. I replaced it with a Gearhead Works, Tailhook Mod 2. Probably one of the best braces going. Between this and a Midwest Industries m-lok forend, it is substantially lighter too.

Good luck

KNS Precision also manufactures some folding adapter blocks. Out of stock now, but keep checking back.

IIRC, the 308 has two and the others have one --as though the extra recoil will shear a 6mm pin.

The KNS block has three slots for this reason
