Thread: AR stock recommendation

  1. #1

    AR stock recommendation

    Ordered an EMOD and then looked at the weight. 14oz, oof.

    The concept is a light hard use 14.5 carbine and it’ll use a Vltor A5 tube. I’d like tight lockup on the tube, none of that rattly stock garbage.

    Keep the EMOD, or are there better ideas?

    I haven’t found anything I like better for a carbine than the Magpul CTR.

    I use the STR, which is like the CTR but provides better cheek weld via the two storage compartments.

    Mine was tight AF when I first installed it. It has loosened significantly, but doesn't rattle even when the secondary lock isn't engaged.

    Weight at the back balances a can....so that’s one benefit.

    +1 on this. Also the Rogers Super-Stoc is nice too. https://www.rogersshootingschool.com.../superstoc.php

    The CTR is good but wide stocks versus narrow stocks depend somewhat on the shape of your face and your shooting style.

    Another good slim option is the Magpul MOE SL stock.

    It’s for wider stocks like the email I like the SOPMOD and the SOPMOD Bravo From B5 / LMT.

    The CTR is also my favorite, but one I've had for about four or five years has loosened up and now can rattle a touch even with the lock engaged. It's foliage, so I've been thinking about replacing it with black anyway.

    I haven’t tried too many outside of the cheaper Magpul ones but I LOVE the Rogers Super Stock.

    After test driving several stocks I've swapped everything to the Magpul MOE SL. Tough, small, cheap, and minimal pulling on my beard. I liked the BCM stock as well but it plucked too many beard hairs.
