Quoted: I wish you would have posted about the stock before I ordered one two days ago. Oh well, guess I will send it back when it gets here. Does anyone have an opinion about he Choat Machine and tool side folders for HK 91? If so please give info before I make another dumb purchase.
Take care.

The Choate stock is longer than the factory fixed stock, if that is going to be an issue you can get the ACE side folder. The Ace stock can be set up shorter, or to fold to the left, and it has the option of a rubber butt pad. Also when I talked with the sales rep from ACE they recommended the Buffer Technologies recoil buffer be used with their stock as the endcap assembly ships with the same one Choate uses. I would apply this same advice to the stock from Choate, mainly they said the buffer included with the kit doesn't last as long as the Buffertech buffer.
I have both the Choate stock for the 91 and 94, my only complaint is that the A1 style endcap for the 94 is a bit wobbly on the gun. I like the extended lenght over the stock on the 94. If your Choate stock is crooked they will exchange it for one that is not. They are good people, and remember they made the OE folder for the HK MP5k. Virtually the same piece they sell for the other HK guns, just attached to the weapon differently.
If I had the option to do it again, I would purchase the Choate stock and the ACE side folder. I would however look into a metal HK93 endcap to use with the one for the HK94 to eliminate any chance of a wobble on those guns. (ACE uses the same HK MP5 A1 endcap to attache their folder to the HK94 or MP5 so it may wobble on a 94 as well).
As a side note you can purchase everything you need to put an AR15 collapsible stock on an HK gun from ACE if you are interested in such a project. You can purchase the Choate stock from Choate, JLD enterprises or Robert Johnson at RTG parts.
