Hi all.  I'm building up a AR now, and I have a DPMS stock.  The stock has quite a bit of play in it, and I wanted to see what peoples opinions are on the
Vletor and Magpull stocks.  Same time of play ?  Any you would reccomend ?  

I figure I would ask the helpful crew here before I drop $200

Thanks

save your money. remove the stock from the tube and wrap in an old T-shirt. place the stock in a vise and tighten gently until snug. use a blow dryer or heat gun on the stock until warm. then, tighten vise slowly a 1/4 to 1/2 turn. let stock sit overnight and then install. the stock will take the new shape and be snug. enjoy.

+1 on the blowdryer trick.  I've done five that way and it really works.

If you want the best get the LMT SOPMOD stock.  No play and ithas the best cheekweld out of any of the AR stocks bar none.  There is no better collapseable stock out there.

Now if you want a adjustable precision stock the Magpul PRS is the best out there.  But this stock does not collapse.  This stock is great when you are using large scopes that need higher rings to mount properly.

+1 on the heat gun trick except on mine, i just pushed the soft plastic in with a rounded dowl rod in one spot on the top of the stock where there already is a hole on mine and kept pressure on dowl rod until plastic cooled ( about 1 minute ) the reinstalled. Made a nice tight fit.
