AWB over ... what should I get?

Zundfolge · Sep 13, 2004

Since the AWB dies in a little over 12 hours, which "evil" stock should I get for my 16" AR-15?

Standard CAR colapsable stock

MagPul colapsable stock

ACE M4 SOCOM stock

screw the stock and go for the Beta C mag (a friend of mine is trying to get me to get in on a group buy ... it would be about $250)

The Magpul has the most sexy CNC'ing on it.

That's always been my criterion for buying bike parts.

Buy your kid a college textbook, or something

Listen to FTU. Or help me get through college. Or something.

don't/can't/won't have a kid and I put myself through college on my own, so I'll just buy toys for myself instead

... "Can't"?

... "Can't"?

Umm....we don't talk about that anymore...

Yay, AWB is over! If only John Kerry wasn't such a douchebag (set on bringing it back if he gets elected).

Yes, boy...being able to buy these stocks sure has made America a bigger and easier target for "terror"...

I have absolutly no idea what i'm talking about, but the Magpul looks like a toy about to break.

My instict for high-stress mechanical system (i guess firearms can be put into this category), from an ingineering point of view, would point to the simplest and more robust system.

Since I really don't know any of those I can't really give any suggestions, but from what is see in those images, the ACE M4 socom one would be the best choice.

None of the above. Buy me a FAL

Edit: I like the standard CAR stock, and that beta-C mag just looks sexy. How does the loader work though?

Get a C mag!

Wife and I been to the doctors ... not going to happen without serious medical assistance (and we don't want to risk quintuplets or worse).

Well if its a semi auto, I'd say the magpul looks sexy as hell, but if by chance you for some reason have a full-auto version, c-mag.

Anything other than the standard is a toy made to impress CS kiddies and anime people.

Not true.

The MagPul and the ACE (especially the ACE) are actually more comfortable to shoot ... the advantages to the CAR stock is that 1. I can buy two CAR stocks for what one of either of the others cost and 2. MilSpec looks kinda cool

A friend of mine has his rifle tricked out with the MagPul stock and its a real nice unit.

Honestly, however, I'm leaning toward the ACE.

I wonder how easy it would be to change the recoil system to something like the Olympic Arms OA93 short bolt system and go with an ACE side folder

Nightmare · Sep 13, 2004

ACE looks like serious hardware, go for it. The other stuff looks like toys.

Prowler · Sep 13, 2004

I agree, I never seen the ACE version before it looks very solid

Lt. · Sep 14, 2004

im going to have to vote against the ACE *and* the beta-c,

go for the standard stock, you dont see any Force Recon guys with those goofy ACE things, etc. and for a semiautomatic rifle the beta-c is just impractical.

AWB over ... what should I get?

Which "evil" feature?

CAR stock

MagPul

ACE M4SOCOM

Screw it ... go for the Beta C Mag!
