   Looks kinda cool... a little pricey though. |
I must be one of those guys... because I have high rings on mine and it still seems like the scope it too low... 
|
If its made in China the answer is yes. They steal everything else they make.... |
Hey, here's an idea, maybe they should rename the thing "the Ultimate Sniper Stock". Then everyone will buy it! What do you think? Maybe they can get John Plaster step brother to endorse it.... wp |
Maybe it could take the shot for you too  Unless it is affixed to a tripod I dont see how it will stay on target - It seems to have a lot of stuff on it for limited us - pray for instance could someone explain what the "butt plug" thing under the stock is for? |
It's to butt rape you every day to remind you how you got butt raped by paying $465 for a $60 stock... Pathfinder- you still aren't using a cheek riser  Wackypeacock-do you really think Rich designed that thing? Get real! ETA: I can't wait to see that thing on a Tapco-ized AK! |
the monopods work great with a bipod and high mag scope. same idea as a pinch bag. accu-shot.com/main.html |
If your referring to Magpul's PRS...I once again remind you..."NOT in the wrong place" when employing a large objective NV optic that IS properly setup, a cheek riser IS needed.  With 20,000+ NV units going out the military this year with LOT's of 4X Raptors on MANY AR platforms, the SOPMOD, VLTOR (if the grunt even has them) are just a SMUDGE better (their STILL too low) than the A2 which gives you a "chin weld". Unfortunately A2's are still mostly issued with the Raptor scope!  Vic |

Quoted: It's to butt rape you every day to remind you how you got butt raped by paying $465 for a $60 stock... /quote] That answer to Kevin is about the funniest thng I ever read on AR15. But all kidding aside, I have "cheeked" this "fully adjustable stock" in our (KAC's) conference room attached to a Mk 11 here in Titusvillle and was impressed with its design. The prototype was very well executed, and the designer was a gentleman from Israel who seemed very knowledgeable about a certain spectrum of sniper applications. For example, their use of stand alone night vision devices standing higher than normal iron line-of-sight day optics (as referenced above re: Raptor, etc.). He has apparently got some advocates within the IDF and other Israeli units that use our SR-25's as sniper rifles. However, we didn't go anywhere with this stock or its designer, so don't anyone assume its high price is the result of them being associated with us. Since then I have actually purchased one of Rick's (MagPull) new similarly adjustable stocks and found it to addresss the same requirements just fine. Rick's products are always well done. In fact, even the replacement buttstock screw he supplies with the new stock is first class. Same for the Tango Down replacement pistol grip screw (thank you Mr. Allen--wherever you are). This Allen screw from the TD is on more than one of my rfles. |
Uh oh... you said IDF... that'll get some sales from here.

I was in Rich's (Magpul) booth at SHOT and talking to a Marine sniper and they had extreme interest in the PRS. One thing he pointed out to me that I had never thought of was this. The bad guys have spotters with cell phones everywhere. The Marine explained to me that these spotters will keep an eye open for snipers heading out and track them and then inform the bad guys as to the location. The rifle is the give away. He explained not only that they not only liked the ergonomics of Rich's PRS, but also that the cheek piece could be lowered and the adjustable butt retracted and with the QD optics removed the sniper would not be so obvious as he moved out and would appear more like a normal troop and less likely to draw attention to himself and his mission.
