M&P 15-22 Stock Question

[axshon]

So LOP on my Savage Mark II is too long for my wife and the youth stock from Savage does not accommodate my heavy barrel.

I'm looking at an M&P 15-22 but I'd like to know what the minimum LOP is with the stock fully collapsed. Also, it seems from google that it takes the milspec AR stock. Correct?

I considered a 10/22 but I like the AR form factor of the M&P so that when she wants to move up there is already something for her in the safe that is 100% comfortable.

LOP is 10" when the stock is fully collapsed. It makes for a great gun if you have growing children.

Yes is does take Milspec AR stocks.

We love the 15-22. Soft shooter and tons of fun for kids of all ages. Mine wears a cheap Primary Arms red dot and makes even the most novice shooter feel great.

My undersized 11 yo loves it. Fits perfect. If he can shoot it your wife can.

All Milspec adjustable stocks fit except those with dedicated built in buffer tubes (example: Ergo F93 Pro). However each will have a varying amount of slop in the tube depending a lot on how close to minimum LOP it is set for. To eliminate the slop completely you need a stock that is lockable not just the 6 position lever setting. You can eliminate most of it with a strip of electrical tape on the buffer tube towards the back of the buffer tube.. Or you can go to the expense of buying a stock with a locking lever. Best example is the Rogers/Safariland SuperStock. Looks like a Magpul stock with an extra lever on it.
