    Gunshitty A Cat AR stock

    Anyone got one and what do you think?
    I have some of the Spear ones, and they are appalling... way too short... next to zero cheek weld, have to cut buffer tube screw down, and have the feel and look of a $10 Airsoft stock.
    Gunshitty one any better?

    Its an a2 buttstock combined with a hogue grip. Use your imagination. I think they are pretty good especially if you are used to a similar setup.

    I'm not sure about the polymer used in the spear stocks. Feels a bit... brittle?

    The moulding around the grip and buttstock can be a bit iffy looking so it would pay to look through a line up before picking one. If thats an option of course.

    As for them breaking, i heard of an AK breaking once too.

    I have one already. JP thumb hole.
    I priced getting them made a long time ago but the laminate over here was worth prob what a finished product could sell for.

    Brought it about 6 yrs ago after they had stopped making them.
    I love it. Fits like a glove.
    The butt pad is lower than the charging handle axis and this brings a better sight picture height.
    Right handed only thumb hole.
