I think it's mainly because of people like you and I are willing to dish out the dough for them at their current price. Intially they were the new thing, and like all new things they usually command a higher price and not as available. They are seen all over with the worlds elite forces, and kinda makes it a gotta have it item for alot of folks here. If the demand for these taper off im sure the price will eventually drop. I cant see why the r&d costs would justify this, crane is the one who designed these stocks originally. Lmt beefed up the material used and manufactured them for crane.

don't know how much longer i can wait. just can stop thinking on how i can improve on my CR-combat replica rifle. it's getting silly, just when you think it's perfect...you hear about the "latest and greatest" thing and gotta have.

IIRC LMT has to sell them to us for the same price they sell to the military, or some such. Or LMT can't sell to the civi world cheaper than they do the military. Something along those lines.

LMT had to pay a HUGE fee to Crane for the rights to manufacture the Sopmod.

I think it is worth it. I love mine and it makes shooting so much better when trying to make an accurate shot.

There are 2 different configurations. One is just the stock, the other is stock, tube, plate and nut. If there is enough interest, I'll talk to John/ Teknic and see what we can cook up.
Remember that any group buy must be approved by Staff, and that there are a limited number of group buys that can go on at any one time. |

I have one that came on a rifle I traded a guy for. I honestly don't get what all the fuss is about. But group buys are good, and more power to you guys.

Count me in on group buy. I need at least one more. Also maybe a really dumb question, but how do you remove the stock from the buffer tube? I just got purchased one and cannot figure it out. Thanks in advance

Pull down/out on the same lever you use to adjust it.

I looked hard at getting one, but the price is just rediculous. I bought one of these stock saddles and it provides an excellent cheek weld for $20. www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=125&t=319861

not sure about other military things but for firefighting equipment, dealers pay out the ass to the gov't...just to be a "prime vendor" |

I would be interested in participating in a group buy. I need the complete kit though, not just the stock.

Also interested in 1 SOPMOD stock with the full kit. Like to know what kind of price might be possible.

Welp, that is 10+ "wants", so what constitutes enough for a group buy to get rolling?
