    Hmmm, I like the solid version end cap over the ASAP one, looks like it flows with the rifle better.

    So length wise it is somewhere in between the lengths of adjustability of a CTR/MOE, but shorter than the MOE RIFLE/A1 stock?

    For a SHTF/camping build this would be lightweight, cheap and solid!

    Why we have so many choices in parts and configurations, hard to pick just one.


    Thanks for the preview of one actually in hand! Update when you go bang some lead down range!

    Sorry there are so many pictures, Skully
    You still have these on your just in case builds?

    Still like it?

    I am thinking of one for a super cheap just in case build.

    For a fixed I still like the ace. One can get them in the length you need and tune it with the pad. I know, its just not plastic.

    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    First, Jerry, your avatar is kinda freaky with the licking kitty cat. Just wanted to point that out.



    ACE stocks are nice, but almost twice the price of the MAGPUL fixed carbine stock even if you include the price of the buffer tube.

    Window licking cat. Just for the Holidays. I think I have $75 into mine. I like the nice soft foam on the ace. That way I have a place to take a nap on the range as ya know how us old guys are.

    The ACE stock pricing confuses me. If you want the big, long one.... It's like $69. The shorter one is around $110.

    I will admit it is strange but the long one (A1 length) uses the rifle buffer tube. Shorter than the A2 but not as short as the carbine tube. The long stock can be shortened to the point that one can use (and need) the carbine buffer. Most that are at least 5'6" are comfortable with the std stock.

    It may look long but it is not.
