grouse Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I have the standard stock on my M1 right now. Thinking about trYing the pistol grip stock. What are your preferences when it comes to stocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullittmcqueen Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I stick with standard shotgun style stocks. I was a competitive shotgunner first, so it's what feels natural to me. Having a hold of a pistol grip also makes manipulation of most shotgun safeties harder (with your thumb anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Straight for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernGunsLLC Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Straight pull stocks all the way! Pistol grip feels too unnatural for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdknotts1 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I go both ways. depends on the weight and balance of the gun for me. I know some guys that go both ways.... And I'm one of them! I been hunting most of my life with a straight stock. Never really messed with a pistol grip til the military and LE. I currently shoot a Benelli M4 with pistol grip. I have no problem picking up an M2 w a straight stock and running it. Prefernce? For just 3-gun would prob be a straight stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gng4life Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I like both also and my preference is the PG. However, when I got my M1 and then an M2 later, I was reading about problems with inertia shotguns and pistol grips along with any extras like side-saddles. Some were reporting that these things caused jams and so forth so I took their advice and started sticking with straight stocks for shotguns. The PG feels more natural though, very similar to the AR rifle I shoot and it felt more consistent switching between the rifle and shotgun. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
