Hey arfcommers, I'm the guy behind the NSN.

I know it's radical. But, seriously, it works.

Give me a little while to get video of other people using it. The new and veteran shooters that have used it so far have told me that they like it. Most asked question: does it hurt? Answer: not at all. I will even be testing it on a Remington 870 in the next few weeks. The polyurethane foam pads absorb recoil very well.

And give me whatever feedback you have. I can take it. There's an absolute shitstorm on Soldier Systems / AR15news / other sites about how this is an "omg! fail!". Just do one thing for me: watch this first and then watch this video, think about the benefits/drawbacks for a minute, and then post. I'm looking for your thoughts, but I'd appreciate it if they were based on all of the facts that I have presented.

Or just flame on.  I enjoy a good laugh.

Thanks, and S/F,
-Neal

Whether it works or not, the price point is going to turn away many potential buyers.  Seems like it could promote a bad case of TMJ. lol     Novel thinking out of the box.

Price is in line with MSR for PRS, etc. stocks.          What does the tax on a SBR have anything to do with the cost of a stock?

At least he's trying something new and innovative. Could be good for states that don't allow SBRs. (Michigan, I think, right?).

Why is everyone on the net and all these forums so knee jerk spiteful when something new like this comes along and they themselves don't think they'd buy it or they perceive it as too expensive,etc.?  Don't like it?  Don't buy it. Jeez.

That why I asked how many have been pre-ordered. Maybe the orders out weigh the comments.

Has the ATF weighed in on this yet? I know a lot of people have been raising the point of a "3rd point of contact".

Interesting question. There is no "3rd point of contact" in the definition of any firearm. The design could however remove it from the pistol/handgun classification because it can be argued that the firearm is no longer "designed to be held and fired by use of a single hand."(Title 18 Part 1 Chapter 44 Section 921) or "A weapon originally designed, made, and intended to fire a projectile (bullet) from one or more barrels when held in one hand." (Title 27 Chapter II Subchapter B Part 478 Subpart B Section 478.11)



Depending on how the ATF decides, it could put it in the title 1 firearm classification if over 26"OAL or the AOW class if under 26"AOL.

So your calling this a stock? Then it has everything to do with the SBR tax.



My post was in reference to, as the OP suggests in the tile, a way to have a SBR without the tax. Reading is fundamental.

If you call it a stock it's an SBR and taxable. If you call it a tooth extractor then it's not taxable.

The functional word with NFA is "shoulder stock".....   Reading is fundamental....     You can call this product  a "chin stock", "chin rest" or whatever you wish to call it...   My post has everything to do with the cost of aftermarket add-ons and I never called this a "shoulder stock"....  I simply made reference to the price of a shoulder stock compared to this accessory...        You could spend the $200 on the tax and then still spend over $200 on a shoulder stock...

Yep reading is fundamental, please post a link to any NFA, CGA, US Code or Title section, paragraph or subsection that uses the phrase "shoulder stock". Or any USC, ATF, GCA or NFA rifle or SBR definition  that includes the word "stock" in it anywhere.
Bet ya can't.
As a matter of fact I'll wager the only place you'll find the word "stock" at all in any codified federal firearm definition is in the definitions of a handgun and pistol.

I would suggest you contact the proper people here to set up a Dealer account before you proceed any further in this thread before you wind up getting locked for unpaid advertising. They take it quite seriously here.





I STRONGLY advise you do not test it against yourself with an 870. Find somebody with the proper equipment to measure the recoil force at the contact point. Firing a 12ga shotgun off your chin is a good way to get hurt BAD, and a small amount of polyurethane is not going to do much to prevent a bad injury. Don't mess up your face, mouth, neck, brain, or other majorly important parts testing something, do it right so you can continue to live an enjoyable life.





In regards to .458 and the .50s, you KNOW someone will do it and NO AMOUNT OF WARNING WILL STOP THEM.





On to my personal opinions of it!





In my experience and the experience of many, yes, a shorter rifle is lighter and handier. That's why people use shorter rifles. I use a 16" carbine with a midlength gas system and a decent brake. It packs a punch inside 100, and I know my rifle will hold MOA or better out to 450m, at least. I do not think your 'notastock' would provide for accurate braced shooting out to 450m. There are gentlemen who can shoot accurate past 300 and 400 with a 10" 5.56, with a stock, holding the rifle properly. Your system may be okay inside of 25m, but I highly doubt its effectiveness to make a precise shot beyond that. I am a strong believer in the fact that Bullpup rifles are better than a straight SBR AR for CQ shooting or most other applications. A bullpup firearm such as an AUG allows for a 18" barrel in a package the length of a 12.5" AR with a good comp/brake attached and the stock extended to a a proper LOP for average height male shooters.

You need to contact JLA on this forum, through E-mail, regarding setting up a Dealer account. Unpaid advertising is a pretty big offense on these boards. I have seen several people have their accounts locked until the issue is resolved.

I suppose credit is due for ingenuity and creativeness if nothing else.  It would be interesting to try but being that I'm able to own SBRs, this is a little unneeded for me personally.  I am all for inventiveness and R&D when it comes to things like this though.  

Regardless of how well this is accepted I hope the creator of it continues to be innovative as it appears he is definitely thinking outside the box, which we all can agree is not a bad thing.

it is just very suspicious that you just registered and come here to just to post in this thread for the 1st and 2nd time.

in addition you did not purchase this stock is my guess since you where part of the filming so it is easy to give a good review

I'm going to be careful in my wording since this is not GD.

Firstly, your post comes across strongly as a shill.

Secondly, as being filmed in the video by the company your point is moot.

Thirdly, this website is a forum and community, not a blog.
