I Put one on a build I did for a friend of a friend. I tested it, and for me it worked like shite. I realize I'm in the very small minority who had a bad experience with this product. I believe it can and does work as well as is shown in videos.






What I learned at the owners expense. These stocks are made of some cheap azzed plastic the style of the grip and stock over all is very un-aesthetically pleasing, and the cost is way to much for what they are.







I ended breaking the action block on the one I tried out. They sent another, but for how important the part is, it damn well should be made out of anodized aluminum.












I have been mulling around making my own bump fire stock. I'm sure it could be done for way less money, and even be a better product.







For instance a spring in the stock set at the  correct weight, and a design that looks cool with a grip I really like such as Hogue.







Has anyone thought the same thing or even taken it farther?

I think the spring might be a problem, but can't remember the details.  It runs well for me but is pretty much a toy.  It has a very odd feel for me and the grip is kinda retarded.

I'm sure you can make a better one, just ditch the spring idea, it could get you in trouble as the ATF says that's a no no.
