sv45 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I was thinking of changing the stock on my AR, Is there a better stock out there for shooting three gun besides the standard. I am thinking of the EGW with adjustable weights. What do you think? I know it will not make me shoot faster and jump higher but the rifle will look cool. LOL ThankEj45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I know it will not make me shoot faster and jump higher but the rifle will look cool Yes it will make it look cool, but that's all.

stingerjg Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Im using one from FULTON ARMORY. It adds a little weight but i get a much better cheek weld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 ACE makes pretty nifty stocks. The SOCOM: http://www.dreadnaught-industries.com/imag...15_Open_ace.JPG The Skeleton: http://www.dreadnaught-industries.com/imag...ar10_open_1.JPG Personally, I like the SOCOM better due to the four inches of pushbutton length adjustment. The Skeleton just looks nifty! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Snyder Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 my 16inch flat top started life as a full size A2, added the short upper and collapsible Colt stock with some additional detents for Kyle's matches... but didn't like the cheek weld (Mikey wouldn't give me one of the SOCOM models with sloping cheek piece... some friend) so it now sports one of the ugliest A1 stocks, with rounded butt pad... I did mill a slot in the side and sling it like a M1 carbine... for the shorter ranges we shoot down here it seems to work the best with the shorter stock... it is border line fugly.... regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 The ACE stock is pretty sweet. I shot Cooley's rifle with it, and it was nice! I'm probably picking it up here soon. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUBL Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Someone mentioned the JP website and the stocks there......take a REAL close look at the one that you can put a magazine in. VERY FAST.....infact, almost as fast as having the ready mag on the side of your rifle, or having 2 mags taped together. Also, 'the bar'....is lower on the pistol grip than the standard JP buttstock, so no....it does not interfere with your hand position...at all (at least not mine) And....I guess....as I work for JP.....you can consider it a shameless plug (not something I would normally do).....but I've been using this stock and really like it!!!

blkbrd Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 If your under 6'1" or so try a plain old A1 stock. They are not the trickest setup but that 5/8" shorter old stock sure works well for many while moving, sitting or standing. I like A1 stocks for my 3-gun and SHTF AR's, and an A2 for my highpower rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 As blkbrd mentioned, the old A1 stock is a better fit for most people than the current A2 stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear1142 Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I'll third that. I use the A1 stock. Erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerSniper158 Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I have an Ace Ltd. Entry Skeleton stock with the 1" recoil pad. It works well for me. Handy in tight close and still gives me enough length for prone and off hand shots. CS#158 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellyn Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 My new rifle has an ACE full sized skeleton stock. Most of my other ARs have A1 stocks w/ Accuracy Speaks Adjustable buttplates. I prefer the A1 with adjustable butt plate but only sligthly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacMan Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I prefer the A1 stock. However, I don't make the habit of painting it with other people's spouse names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 My "car gun" (a Bushmaster superlight carbine) has one of the stubby "entry" stocks plus a one-inch spacer from Knight's Armament that also has an ambidextrous swivel attachment for a single point sling. It works great for CQB type stuff, but I don't think's it's as easy to use prone or from the bench as an A1 stock. The A2 is definitely too long for me.
