    Aluminum early adjustable stock? What is it?

    Like the one in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfeQgxC4cHM

    What is it and is there anywhere to get it? Is there a plastic version too?

    Both metal and plastic and Brownells, spend the extra cash for the metal.

    That is what is on all the old SP1 carbines. Wonderful stock IMO. Hopefully somebody other than Doublestar makes one.

    I have the double star aluminum kit and it’s really nice.
    As a bonus, it comes with the correct non castle spanner nut, which can be tough to find.
    The only knock I have against it is the tube is black and not grey.

    I can't believe I got rid of my aluminum one (insert sad face here).

    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    Thanks for the headsup on that--two things, one they sound like a really helpful source for spares on C.'s C8 (and C7 if we build her one rather than just a "second URG for her lower") and two someone here, IIRC 26 Inf, had suggested a setscrew in the hole as an alternate to staking.

    Now if only they made the new six-socket version...
