Okay, found this on ebay. I think it's an M231 Port Firing Weapon stock. What do you guys think? I went up to $34 and was still outbid so I gave up. Is it really an M231 stock?

DPMS also makes these (or did at one point).

It was part number M231-CS-10 and retailed at $69.95.

Don't bash me if I'm wrong, but I do not belive these were ever used on the M231. Aftermarket parts..

The M231 used a similar wire stock. After looking at some pics, though, I see that this stock has a longer buffer tube than a real M231.

The prototypes did.  The stock was dropped by the time the final iteration was accepted

True and good info, B.D.

Think this one is a DPMS, also.

It'd make for a good clone if you could find the handguards.

I was bidding it but after the seller sent me some close ups of it I backed off when outbid. It is not the real deal.
