I'm looking at upgrading my LMT's basic collapsable to to SOPMOD stock.  How hard is it to swap out?  LMT's website is selling the cmomlete kits with the buffer tube or just the buttstock.  I think I should be able to get just the buttstock instead of the whole assembly.  Is it hard to replace just that part?

Very easy to swap out, pull the adjustment lever on the M4 stock to slide it off, then pull the adjustment lever to install the SOPMOD. It should only take 2 seconds to swap them. All you need is the buttstock if you have a LMT M4 on there now.

Perfect, that's what I was hoping.  Is LMT direct the only place to get these?

Nope, lots of dealers have them, although they may or may not be in stock. I will say that if you want to ensure you get the latest generation stock with the built-in QD sling mount, ordering directly from LMT is not a bad way to go.

I have found better deals on the EE here and on ebay.

good point.  I'm not in a rush, so I think I'll order from LMT and just be done with it.

There was even a thread on here a few years back on how to reinforce a certain Airsoft
knockoff of the SOPMOD so the adjustment pin hole would not wear out.

They are out there...
