When can we expect to see the new PRS from Magpul. Or, if one of you dealer fellas, has an extra one that might want to sell.

Alright, somebody has to know when these are going to be available.

There was someone selling one of the dealer only copies over on Sturmgewehr for $500 IIRC.  I think I'll wait until they come out for general comsumption...

Very good idea. As I am told, it wont be long.

415 is a rip off of what they cost.

Has Magpul said what the cost will be for us lowly consumers?

I don't remember reading it, though it's certainly possible I missed it.

think it was supposed to be like $240 or $260 or so.

240-260 bones is correct and I'm told they WILL be ready for the Christmas shopping spreeeee!

Hey Victor,
Customer who comes in where I work wants a night scope. I know enough about NV to know I dont know enough to talk to someone about it. Guy wants something very nice, he uses his rifles, so something durable. I doubt price is an issue. He has $$ to spend. Can I just get him your info?

i have one i will sell for 300 the reason i choose that price is to cover my shipping costs to me when i bought it and then to ship to you.

Its NIB and the standard black even though they come in 3 colors

How much of the buttplate is dead weight?  Or conversely, how much of the stock interior is vacant.  This may seem like a strange enquiry, but I'm looking for a place to store CR123A batteries.

I can fit two in the MIAD grip, but need at least three just for M9 illuminator replacements.  Perhaps a plastic clip might attach to the inside of the buttplate or it cold be machined to include a pocket?  Depending upon the NVD chosen, there may or may not be a need for additional cells.  I suppose there might be some accessory storage tube that mounts to a RAS on the market I'm not aware of.  Any thoughts?

This stock is not for that type of usage... more for a sniper/counter sniper/ high power type roll...

This is a CMMG SST Bull sort of a recon carbine/ LE type precision rifle...

What the heck is on the end of the barrel?

I think the PRS should hold a few batteries - I've seen more than a couple pictues of folks running them with NVDs on top.  I would bet that those scopes burn through batteries pretty quick!

Well it is a thread protector and Rebar cutter attachment,.. There is a Video on CMMG Webpage of a test of it and I personally freehanded some 3/4" Rebar with a single M855 round.
Below is a shot of some 1/2" Rebar (Pic Blatantly stolen from CMMG..)

I see the point of the battery issue... stuff em in the pistol grip.....

Using a NV scope, IR illuminator, and/or IR target laser even on a precision rifle creates a need for spare power cells in field.  Adding battery storage capability to this stock only increases its marketability.  It's one of the features that makes the LMT SOPMOD stock popular, for example.

Not having seen this stock in person, I have no idea whether or where there might be dead space which could accommodate a CR123 or few.  Perhaps a slightly larger bottom rail cover?  Holder for two cells under the cheek plate?  Tube running horizontally just behind the buffer tube?  Cut out and plastic snap clip for one cell in the butt plate?  Still, if it could be done, it would certainly improve the situation, if a bit.

The only realistic place would be to replace the mono-pod area into a C123 storage compartment.  Thus far, all the PRS's I've sold no one has deemed to modify one as yet?  Some close up pics here.  Not much room though as you can see.

Then again, it's also early in the life of their existence.  The matter of modification is not directly related to the product, but the potential conditions under which the product may be used.  The original A1 stock didn't have a storage compartment, either.  After all, the stock didn't need one to function.
