Okay stock if you arent building a Clone
I got one of these butt stocks a year or so ago from a friend. I'll keep this short and sweet. The stock its self isn't great for any M16 clone, I wouldn't use it for one at all. It is however good for anyone who wants to have an A1 length fixed stock on their AR-15. The butt plate on this stock really is garbage but can be replaced with an A2 type butt plate from someone like Anderson. Not a bad stock over all but you will definitely want to replace the butt plate.
The shell is okay
I bought this as I didn't need another buffer tube and spring that I would have gotten with the Brownells retro kit. I found an A2 stock was too long for me. Buy the whole kit from Brownells. The shell of this stock fits snug on the tube and receiver, but does feel a little softer than the PSA A2 stock it replaced. The buttplate is complete airsoft wish.com Chinesium-grade plastic as other reviewers have described. Also a negative, the sling loop doesn't have anything to keep it from rotating around if bumped. Fortunately, the buttplate off the PSA A2 stock fit perfectly. With everything tightened down its solid, but I had to use parts I already had.
Buttpad ruins it
The stock itself is ok. It is the correct A1 length. The buttplate is a flimsy, rubbery piece of garbage that gets drilled through by the install screw. Would not recommend. Brownells should discontinue selling this product. If you want an A1 length fixed stock for your rifle, get a Brownells retro A1 stock instead.
Yea wasted 50 bucks
Top screw went right thru the butt plate
warning
This is a very cheaply made stock.The buttstock screw goes all the way through the butt pad and then all you have to do is pull back on the stock and it comes off completly.The only way to avoid this issue is not screw it in enough to tighten the buttstock.This stock is pure junk and I would'nt even want my enemies to use it
