    Both my AR15 and AR10 version are tight, I had to use a screw driver to pry them loose.

    I thought about getting rid of it, but it does provide a "toe" for the support hand to hold on to better than if it weren't there.

    I use the AR15 PRS on my AR10, the AR15 PRS's cheek piece is more usable, and I don't need to raise it to the point it would impede the charging handle. With AR10 recoil, that little cover never came loose.

    What warranty problem could occure to this stock that would require it to be returned to magpul that was not field repairable?

    Magpul for sure! Who's making the "non-legit" rip offs?

    The down side to that is that the "rail" will not ride a bag or your hand very well.

    I think the stock cover was probably just a touch out of spec, I've never seen or heard of this problem before. I doubt it can be chalked up to a "design flaw".

    Mine is so tight it needs a screwdriver to pry it off, if it ever shoots loose(and I've put several thousand rounds through this one) I'd either put some kind of shim in there(like maybe teflon tape) or just glue the damn thing on.

    Nice work however, just probably a bit overkill for the problem.

    Thanks for the compliment, that's me for sure, "overkill". Just did a second one for a guy from another forum, I hope he likes it as well as my friend Jerry. It should be back in his home state by Monday.
