MODS: Please move this if this isn't the right place.

Let me start by reporting that I HAVE used the search button.

I'm just a click away from buying one of these for a pistol build until I get the SBR paperwork completed. At that point I will change the pistol extension to a carbine extension and put on a stock - I want to carry it as a backpack weapon.

I am a lefty. I run two point slings. I use the sling 'CQB Style' to stabilize the AR Pistol when firing. Currently I use the QD swivel on a Thordsen buffer tube cover as my rear sling point. It works well and I don't want to change.

Here is my concern which I haven't seen addressed: from my perspective as I lock out the buffer tube would be pulled back and to the right - as in opening the adapter and folding the stock. Will the LAW Gen 3 adaptor hold alignment with this force against it? Has anyone actually used it in this fashion?

I don't think it would take much movement in order to cause enough friction/binding of the spring and buffer to induce malfunctions.

Any input/reassurance on this issue?

Thanks.

Thanks for posting those links - with the exception of the very bottom one, I'd read through them before posting - they didn't answer my very specific question regarding if the LAW Gen 3 functions reliably for a left handed shooter using a sling to stabilize the weapon. As I noted my concern is 'as I lock out the buffer tube would be pulled back and to the right - as in opening the adapter and folding the stock. Will the LAW Gen 3 adaptor hold alignment with this force against it? Has anyone actually used it in this fashion?

None of the links addressed this very specific question, I'm hoping someone can.

Thanks for trying though!

I'm not sure I understand your question, so may I ask if you are asking if you can fire the weapon with the stock folded?

I just purchased one, and, ironically, it arrived today. I bought it to make my SBR more compact and concealable for use in my truck.

He's asking if tension against the re will cause misalignment and binding. Looking at the design I don't see how it would

TaterTot: We will see, I ordered one from Brownells, supposedly they are in stock.

Dang, I bought mine from Amazon and paid too much. Oh, well.

Best review I've seen on it there from Aaron at Sage Dynamics.

Can you use it with an a5?

I have one on a 300blk pistol build. I cannot get it to bind from pressure on the left or right. Has anyone torture tested these? If the o rings in the carrier extension fail, does it tie up the gun?

BINGO! That is what I was looking for. Thank you. BTW - I'm using this on an AR Pistol - going to use your shrink wrap idea on the SOB sling my wife modded for me.
