Good, but…
Does what it needs to do. Lock-up is solid compared to a loose-fitting mil-spec stock. But even though the stock is designed to hold two tensioning leaf springs to take the slack out of the fitment, it ships with only one leaf spring installed (I called magpul to talk about this. They confirmed that it was a deliberate production change because people were complaining about the stocks not fitting on their buffer tubes; and no, they don’t stock spare leaf springs that they could send you). Because of this, there is a tiny amount of wobble on my (Aero) buffer tube. Enough to trigger my OCD, but not enough to affect function or practical accuracy. I’ll probably just throw a strip of gorilla tape on the buffer tube to get it a little tighter, but that’s just personal preference. Otherwise solid, functional, and comfortable.
