[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Magpul ACS (Page 1 of 2)

| Does anyone know when Magpul's Advanced Combat Stock will hit the market? They had a prototype at SHOT last year. |

Quoted:
Aren't there enough stocks out there in the market? Oh wait it's Magpul so you all will get one.   Yes there are allot of stocks on the market. We actually were torn on building the ACS at all but we needed something in our line between the CTR and the UBR. As I stated in another post... Magpul produces products which we build with our own funds. Your tax dollars are not used in development. If you use Magpul products you benefit from their creation. If you don't use Magpul products then you still benefit because our existence keeps other products cost effective through competition. We even fund this, and other, internet sites as a way of giving back to the community. Sounds to me like you got a bargain. |

I just hope it is completely not off the table, because to put it bluntly, I WANT ONE.

From SHOT last year: http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e82/thealpal/magpulACS.jpg Just a mock-up, there's no guarantee that the final product will duplicate this or not. Never thought I'd be quoting Paris Hilton but..."That's hot!"

I can't decide if I want to sell my SOPMOD and buy one of these or stay with what I got!? At least I have enough time to decide  !As busy as Magpul is, you'll likely have a year or more to decide. 
Think so huh? I'm thinkin' there is a hint and a tease in that li'l comment... (yeh, Doc, we all have the "company line" memorized  so I'm not expecting a confirm)

Whats an ACS?....You got a picture of one?... Me? I was working an undercover detail, and heard some hooker talking about one. I'm just repeating what I've heard.
No pictures or release dates right now, sorry guys.  Stick, can you confirm the rumor that you do have pics, but are waiting until after the SHOT Show to put them online? And in case you wonder how these rumors get spread, I usually just make them up as I go along. |

You just gotta love the guys who walk by and chuck a turd into the punchbowl. Hey, we can always keep up the anticipation. But you, Mr. RyanH, are a turd-flinger. Worse: you still have to go to sleep in Texas. Only two things come from Texas: steers and queers. Which one are you? Ah. That feels better. And it makes just about as much sense as your comment. |

I HAVE A REAL QUESTION!!! Will the ACS have QD cups? Where? Yes that is an optional mount right behind the latch optional? so it will be a separate piece? not integral to the stock? also will the production ACS have a removable storage compartment like the UBR? |

I'm a Texas transplant so neither. 
And I won't take any offense to your comments. I know you're just another Magpul junkie like the rest of us who are hoping that my 1 year prediction is dead wrong.
And how does my comment not make any sense? Have you seen the track record lately?! Those ACS pics are from a year ago! Nothing against Magpul, they're doing their best and they want to put out the best gear they can. But it takes time and they're still a small company dealing with growing pains and overwelming demand for their stuff. I just try to not get my hopes up. As much as I'd like to have one of these stocks hanging off my carbine this winter, I'm not going to hold my breath.

I can confirm that there will be a lot of new pictures that I will be able to post on the first day of SHOT 09. None of them have been uploaded as there is a tendency for people to post pictures that shouldn't be, and a tendency for others to copy the picture layouts instead of creating their own. |

Looks like competition for the Crane/LMT but that gap doesn't look facial hair friendly. I'd be much more worried about movement along the buffer tube. If it has a friction lock, that concern should be eliminated. Without movement of that battery compartment, I can't see how hair could get caught in it. - BG |
