I just ordered my first ubr and was disappointed to read in this forum that the second cheek piece is no longer included with the new ubr's.  Is there a reason they are no longer included?

Thanks...

The narrow UBR cheek piece was only about 0.085" skinnier per side than the one that comes installed.  It was so close, in fact, that most people thought it was just a spare and didn't even realize it was a different cheek piece.  Because of this, and because it was just one more piece to mold to slow production, we discontinued it.

I got a UBR early when they were still shipping with both. I ran mine with both, and didn't notice much difference. I wound up going with the wider one just because it's on an SPR-type rig and is a tad more comfy when shooting prone.

Do you still have the narrower one?  If so, would you sell it?

Sorry, no. I may switch the rifle over to a carbine at some point, and want to keep my options open.
