Quoted: Why do some people get hardons about having to have an adjustable stock?
|
I don't have an adjustable stock, but my wife's rifle came with a non functioning ban-era stock that I *had* to activate. The mimicry of function bothered me for some reason.
Most folks are just reveling in everything that was banned merely because they can. Kind of like flipping Sarah Brady the bird to entertain yourself. I have trouble understanding why the stocks were a no-no in the first place.
Detachable hicaps + practice = firepower. They're afraid of firepower. I don't agree, but I can atleast understand the argument. It's coherent. There is a clear connection between
perceived problem and
perceived solution. The stock thing was particularly silly on guns that met legal length requirements when collapsed.
Full size stock =
A-okay.Entry stock =
A-okay.Ability to freely transition form one to the other =
Federal felony.WTF was that all about?
I can only guess that unveiling a weapon and yanking the stock open is an aggressive motion in the movies; kinda like racking a shotgun is dramatically aggressive. The mere thought of this apparently caused the legislation's sponsors to quake in thier panties. I view the AWB as a governmental decree to stop riling the sheep.
Meanwhile, ... back on topic, ... Wisconsin has easily 100* F of temperature swing between winter and summer, so clothing can change your Length Of Pull. A bunch of us use a non-standard shooting stance that appreciates a shorter stock. My wife likes fussing with her stock from one click to the next, and then back again. Anything that draws her into feeling connected with the rifle is a plus in my book. So, THERE ARE some legitimate reasons for wanting one.
