    This is my MkI stock right out of the mould, fibreglass at the moment while I iron out any issues. I'll fit it to a .223 to bash around with and try to break it, part of the R&D process.

    Working toward a carbon stock for Howa mini action, will be a very handy little and light weight gun that won't break the bank.

    I am planning on grabbing a mag or two off them for the 223 mini action, along with a modified mag release. It is a shame that their 5 shot mags don't sit as flush as the cut-down factory ones that some guys have done. Still a big improvement on the factory 10 shot though.
