    Fixed Stock Suggestions

    Looking to put a fixed stock on my coming build. Not looking for a standard A2/A1 butt stock. I know of the two magpul selections, but not really sure about the PRS. What are some other good options? Looking mainly for lightweight, but with a good/decent cheek weld. Don't really like the ACE offerings. Any ideas?

    Have you tried the Ace or just disregarded it off looks ? I have the PRS and the Ace. I bought the PRS first because I dint like the Ace, judging by looks. A friend of mine had an Ace and after a hands on experience with it I had to have 1.
    Mako has a lightweight fixed snipe stock but it's a little expensive. http://www.themakogroup.com/product_p/ssr25.htm

    Here are a few more options

      Check out my Ace in the thread I just posted, my favorite stock. They are light, plus just look cool, to me at least. I wish they could do it with a monopod but since they don't, I'm working on one to adapt to the stock myself.

          Honestly, i don't like the feel of it. Don't like the foam. Also don't like the lack of qd socket.

            For most of us AR-15 nuts we have and take for granted the tons of cool adjustable stocks to choose from but there are the unfortunate few who live in certain states that have banned any adjustable / foldable stocks for Semi-Automatic Rifles.  Typically this means you have to use the retro looking A2 buttstock […]

              I switched out the ARFX for a Magpul MOE fixed on my 6.5, its very light and accepts a QD socket (available at an additional cost) and also several different length butt pads so you can adjust the length of pull. So far I really like it. The cheek weld is good as the sides are not round but somewhat tapered for more contact. I'm experimenting around with adding a QD socket to the ARFX for my 308 as I like that stock as well. The PRS is a good stock but adds considerable weight.

                +1 on what JohnOD says. My nephew and I just put together a lower with the Magpul Rifle stock. I like it. BCM has them in FDE and Foliage for $57 right now. Black is out of stock. Here's a review. http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/201...d-rifle-stock/

                  This would be my choice if weight and/or budget is a consideration. Otherwise the Magpul PRS is a good.

                    My next build is getting an ACE instead of the PRS, especially if kg4kgp gets a mono mount fabricated for them. Maybe a different cheek riser too.
                    Nothing against the PRS, I like mine. It is just heavy.

                      I like the PRS for long barreled rifles it helps balance out the gun. Good for a long range shooter. But i wouldnt want to carry it around all the time through the woods. Its an adjustable stock but i like the Magpul UBR its solid.

                        Got one last week, I'm a fan of all of the ACE Stocks, rock solid and light weight.

                            The PRS is what I'm pairing up with my 24" Grendel, whats a few more pounds, less to wiggle around.

                              I have PRS stocks on both of my Grendel AR's. But, they're heavy as stocks go. I have an RRA Operator A2 stock in the parts box. Really nice fixed stock....
