    Makes the rifle better in every way. Just need a better trigger

    Interesting.

    What are the stock options? Can you add an AR RE?

    As of now there are no options and you cannot add a AR RE. But I doubt that will last long.

    I am incorrect.

    Looks like these guys have adapters for the classic Galil folding stock or a non folding AR RE.

    Pistol/ SBR lengths are running now.
    will be shipping very soon!

    Standard rifle lengths will be in the machines after pistol lengths.

    Hi,

    Do these handguards require any modifications to the weapon, and are the installation instructions available online?

    I'd love a pistol length for my 7.62x39 SB.

    Thanks

    We do not have instructions posted yet. We will have a video. There are no modifications at all to the weapon and you can put the handguard on with the provided tools in less than 10 minutes. These are extremely easy to put on.
    thanks

    The stock? I like it, the recoil pad is really effective. The stock is solid, there is nothing wrong with it at all. It seems that a lot of people just don't like the aesthetics of it.

    Sorry, I meant the whole rifle. What's the weight?

    It's my favorite 308. Accuracy is very good, would be even better when an after market trigger arrives. I have some initial accuracy pics in a earlier thread. It is 2moa all day with a wide variety of ammo. With good ammo and patience it's under 1.5. A better trigger will get even tighter, certainly in DMR territory. The stock trigger is around 8lbs.

    The starting unloaded weight is 8.7. After I added a 1-8x, offset sights, and light it's a stout 11.8lbs. I think my optic mount is heavier than it needs to be. Adding the Midwest rail fixed any support hand ergonomic issues, reduced the weight slightly and made a much better looking rifle.

    The left handed charging handle is very nice. As is the ambi selector. The muzzle brake does a superb job taming recoil.

    I have zero malfunctions. It murders and tosses brass at a healthy distance. It does not lock open on last round, but you can manually achieve that with an empty mag and being soft with the charging handle. Not sure why IWI didn't add a LRBHO like they did to the 556 Ace N.
