Throw bread on me
I want one of those something awful but I'm not sure how they'd look on a 16" rifle

Yeh that looks pretty bad ass ...
Yes they will run on a machine gun but wont work with a drop in auto sear because it alters the way you have to assemble the rifle.
Oh, man, and right after I bought a used one from someone locally.
No way to make one of these function in a 9mm build, right?

A special one made for this stock? or anyone?
Wish I had a lower left to build. Already have all the parts for the projects.
No, Mil-spec AR parts

Picked mine up yesterday morning. Thanks a lot to the crew at Engage like usual. Few notes:
- Stock is like a charcoal gray color, not black. I may just spray it (or have it coated).
- One of my taper pins fell out while I was playing with it. May want to make sure yours are seated all the way.
- Really makes the gun feel a lot different from traditional collapsible stock ARs. Not bad, just different.
- Really no weight savings here compared to a full length. The butt of the stock is a little aggressive, too, with a diamond pattern present on the metal.
Now I just need my stamp to slap a 7.5" upper on it. These things beg to be used with a < 11" barrel.

We will not be open tomorrow bro. Tuesday. You can always email me too, I get those on my cell
Few more things to nitpick after playing with the stock more:
- I've had the right taper pin fall out on me twice now while in use, going to need to replace this with a new one
- The stock isn't able lock in the first (shortest) position, the grove in which it is intended to sit can't reach the release bolt
- I wish they'd come up with a way to be able to tighten the buffer extension without the use of a clamp
- At times the stock doesn't slide completely free
It feels like the left taper pin is working itself out now, too.

Could your experienced issues be a symptom of these troublesome taper pins?

im a grown ass man
Talked with you guys about these today. At least yours all came in anodized. These things are awesome and totally worth it for any sbr, but nea needs to step up the quality control. I'm going to start testing with mine for alternatives to the roll pins such as tapping this out and threading for high quality screws and even machining out the last notch on the slide to get it to lock. Once I get eveything figured out I'll put the dimensions on here so you guys can use them. A little fun fact too is that the seekins billet mag release button will replace the one on there and you can grind down a standard steel mag release to match the shape for the back end so replacment parts are easy to come by.
