I liked mine. It locked up pretty solid, and I like how the buttplate locked into the stock. $ 280 is the price of a AR pistol kit (less 50 dollar lower) on Palmetto when there is not a panic.

I had one of those on mine at that time. I thought it was pretty cool.

Bad Ass Barracus and Hannibal Smith come to mind when I see that.

I’d like one, but $279 is more than I would spend

That sucks for the value of my all original one. Lots of folks are going to buy these for sub $300 and sell their minis for $1k+, or the prices will fall for the original ones as this stock makes it easy to clone one now. Maybe I should unload my original before the market tanks for them even more than it has already.

I bought one around 15 years ago (post-ban) for around $99 IIRC. Was it a Butler, Uncle Mikes......?
Murphy was a grunt.
