    I was joking at first... but **** it, dude. Just make it out of wood. I wanna see how it turns out. It'll be kinda cool, I guess.

    Also, what's wrong with the ACE AR-15 fixed stock? Or even the standard A2 or A1 stocks?

    I run A1 stocks... they're just not as strong as the A2. And you don't enjoy any of the new features you see on the recent slider variants.

    I'm going to sacrifice a Cav Arms A1 stock to mock up the idea this week.

    Maybe I'm high on my own ass fumes... but I think there's a niche for an A1 length, fixed, "tactical" stock. Especially for guys in ass backwards states that don't allow sliders.

    A2 stock LOP is too long for some of us.

    It's too much for most shooters.

    I've been eyeballing these since SHOT. I'm very close to starting a .308 AR build and have been trying to decide between one of these or a UBR for an 18" barrel. I think going this route would save quite a bit of weight, which would be a nice change against my other semi .308 (JAE stocked M14)

    Yeah. This stock would be ideal for a scoped AR15/AR10. You want more LOP for eye relief in that setting....

    Not to hijack the thread, but Techshop is a dream come true for prototyping. They're membership based fabrication centers. The one near me in Detroit has an industrial 3D printer, 3D Scanner, laser cutters, CNC machines, welding equipment, woodworking equipment ect. They also offer classes for C.A.D. etc to assist in design. They have locations in MI, TX, NC and three in CA. The VA is offering 2,000 free one year memberships to Veterans, and to my understanding there are still plenty left available; just call Techshop and ask about the veterans program.

    Cool. Thanks. I'll check that out tomorrow... although I'm not a Vet... if this thing shows any promise, I'll need to take it to the next phase.
