    The other thing is that the stock is thicker behind the pistol grip. GI stocks taper behind the pistol grip while the A/O stock does not. Not a big deal but it means a 15rd mag pouch won't fit.

    Neither of these are a deal breaker for me and I think the stock (and handguard) were a good value especially considering the recoil plate and other parts are included. With that said, I'd probably spend a little more money next time and get a Minelli stock set from Numrich and add my own metal.

    I've had issues with Kahr stocks not being interchangeable with GI stocks. The same goes for handguards.

    As mentioned, it isn't really a deal breaker for me especially in this case where I bought a stock and handguard set together.

    With that said, the Minelli stock sold by Numrich is a more authentic shape. And the handguard is a 4 rivet rather than the 2 rivet as used by Kahr.

    Here's a Minelli set I stained and oiled recently. As received from Numrich, the stock was very light. Almost a blond color. The handguard was a fairly dark brown. The color is still off a little between the two parts but it close enough it shouldn't matter.
