SAGE has not produced the full length EBR for over a year - they only make the Chop Mod.
A little history. The Chop mod is a few ounces lighter than the EBR.

Every now and then an EBR will pop up in the EE, but they sell fast. Good luck

I just ordered one of the new ones. Gosh I hope I do not get one of the old ones! Why would you want the old ones when the new ones are lighter and better balanced?

You should get a Chop Mod - if you happen to get an old EBR you can sell it for more than the Chop Mod.

How would I know if I got an old one? How do you tell? Inquiring minds want to know before I mount it :)

Hello,

FlameRed: A photo to help you:



Top one is a chopmod, bottom one is an original SAGE. IMHO, the chopmod is better. My thoughts on the various SAGE stocks:

Last week. I will have to wait and see what comes. I hope I get the chop mod one. Thanks for letting me know the difference. I assume that if I get the old one someone will want it and I can start looking for a chop mod one elsewhere.

I want to get all my rifles in shape before Hilliary gets in the White House and we get her husband's ban back in force again!!!!
