Its the Magpul M95. Expected price to be around $225. Some may not think it looks good (I do
 ) but it is quite possibly the most adjustable stock the AR market has ever seen. I'll pick one up when they come out.

Yeah, that stock is pretty sweet. Any clue what it's gonna run? I would assume WELL over $175!?!?

Too bloody big IMO...Bet it's heavy too...and Magpul stocks are also WAAAAAY too expensive for me. I'll stick with regular collapsable and fixed stocks. You guys don't think the Magpul collapsable stocks (M92 is it?) are ugly?? |

Most folks on the site are looking for stocks that outperform what they already have, as opposed to something more esthetically pleasing. While something as subjective as how it looks is debatable, their superior strength, adjustability, modularity and feel is nearly unquestionable. And by the way, no I dont think they are ugly. But if you do, I welcome you to continue to make your choices based on how it looks on your gun over how it performs. |

The M93 is not the prettiest stock out there but it is the most solid of any collapsable stock on the market - Vltor and the LMT SOPMOD included. The folks who decide to buy the M95 are more than likely going to put it on a high-dollar rifle and want the function it provides despite the high cost. Spooky ETA - what those guys said - I'm just slow on the keyboard... |

Ever see the M95 first hand? I have. It isn't to big and would almost consider it a work of art. C4 |

I will second that! It is a work of art.
Have you ever picked up an MSG90? Weighs as much as an LMG. This has all the same stock adjustments plus some other neat features and weighs no where near what a PSG1 or MSG90 stock weigh. |

I think the majority of the people on the site should reread that quote twice a day. Cool toys won't buy anyones way into shooting better. Back on topic with the stock, I think it is going to make some people very happy. |

I like it. There are some AR match rifle stocks that have more degrees of motion, but they require tools for some or all of the adjustments.
The thumbwheel adjustments for comb height AND length of pull are excellent. |

The M95 IS heavier than the M93B, but I didn't think it was that far past it in weight. C4 |

Blanco, your A1 stock is stronger? C'mon, you are making this too easy. Is it a vintage A1 stock, like the ones that are nototious for cracking at the end butt plate? Or the new style CavArms A1 stock that has a notorius for having an extra flimsy and easily breakable trap door? Which one of those two A1 stocks is at least as strong, or stronger, than the M93 or M95.
Look, if the stock is not for you, its not for you. No problem. No one will give you a hard time about prefferences. Prefferences are personal and subjective, it is very difficult to argue something like that. But get on some one else because they like it (for whatever reason) and start making excuses like its ugly, or your A1 stock is better or stronger, and you show your own ignorance. |

Here is the article, scroll to the bottom. The stock is great, and with the 19.5" barrel the rifle was perfectly balanced. www.armedforcesjournal.com/blackwater/?s=2005_specs I fired this rifle when AA was here for the NRA show. We got to keep the rifle for two weeks before sending it back to to AA and it ran perfectly and was very accurate. |

As many others, I'm also a Magpul fan. I currently have 3 - M93A2's (one of every color). Eventhough it's alittle pricey, I'm sure I'll end up replacing the A2 stock with a M95 on my Varmit/Target AR.

That hurts....  Lol remember my first post when I was asking why people hung 10 pounds of crap on their rifle like five flashlights, lasers, all that crap...? I'm just saying that: 1. I don't like the looks of it 2. It looks heavy and bulky Also, I think that it is WAAAAAY too pricey when it'll pretty much only be used in competitions and such. Sure it's adjustable but you can buy a cheekweld and buttpad for hundreds less. What exactly makes this worth $220+? It's all plastic isn't it? If it's all-metal, then it'll probably make the rifle even more rear heavy than it already is. And Matt_B, I know that functionality WAY out-ranks looks but it'd be nice to have a gun that doesn't look like it just ate ten wedding cakes and it all went to it's arse that works just as well. Why not get an A2 or A1 stock and put a cheek weld and a buttpad on it and save $100+ that you can spend on ammo, mags, etc.? That's how I see it...but before this get's out of hand and I have to put on a giant flame suit, I respect you guys' opinions and I hope you respect mine. I will now say goodnight to all of you.

I don't know. Some here use their rifles hard in their intended arena. You should see all the dings and scratches on the laminated wood stock on my match Model 70. A stock that costs more than most M4gerys here. |

The M95 is a work of art compared to a Vltor Clubfoot. Now that is an ugly buttstock!

I really, really, really like the magpul I used (Thanks DaBunny) because it doesnt grab my damn beard. Every adjustable stock I have ever shot with in my entire life decides it needs at least one hair out of my beard per cheek weld. I am due for a bald spot in my beard to appear anytime now.
 That said I would buy two more stripped lowers before I would pay $200 bucks for a damn stock. And should I ever decide to spend $200 on a stock, I hope my friends take away all my firearms and have me commited.  |

It's sweet. By the time I get the $$$ for a DMR type rifle build, I will be able to afford one, and they will be out.
BTW, I think it LOOKS cool as hell too

I could give a shit less what it looks like.
The only reason I don't have a M93 is because I don't shoot nose to charging handle. If I did, I'd have one. If I ever get an AR10 I'll buy an M95. |

I think it is fantastic that someone FINALLY produced a real adjustable stock for the AR-15. The only real option I've seen thus far is the "ironstone" thing....that looks like a real pain in the ass aside from the price-tag. I can't wait to get one!

Thats exactly the build I'm going for. Hvy BBl 6.5 with this Magpul stock. I think it will make some interesting shooting.
