Hmmm.....What is that, a 10rd mag in that buttstock? No offense Chuck, but that just looks like an over priced gimmick buttstock to me.
Even at the 73 dollar "Sale" price in OD. Regularly 122? icon_eek Might make a decent rear Monopod with a 20 or 30rd mag though.

You can even stick a 60 round pmag in there. Don't like the deal........Don't buy it.

My point has more to do with the practicality of sticking anything other than a 10rd mag in it. If you are prone, (or frankly offhand since a 30rd mag would be riding your chest) it just seems silly to me.

I assure you, i won't be buying it.

Silly, you turn the rifle sideways to do a combat crawl. Magazine won't matter.

I was curious about the stock. Seems like an interesting idea. I don't know. Longer mags might interfere but dunno. Maybe not.

I'll be curious for a report.

I used this down range and it's an affordable second option.

Well....since it was designed and supplied with a spare mag which wouldn’t cause any of the issues you would have with it...your point seems to be baseless. All reports are that they are well made (in Israel) and if I’m not mistaken, perform exactly as designed. 10 extra rnds in a space otherwise wasted. So your complaining about extra bullets?

Let's see some pics of the finished product.

While an interesting idea, and cool innovation, and yes, making use of "wasted" space. It doesn't really excite me too much. For the price of $75 on sale, or $125 normally, I'd have zero interest.

Other awesome stocks are $30-50. Hi performing, light weight, etc.

And sometimes "wasted" space is good, as it means a lighter rifle. For instance, the Mission Tactical stock isn't wasted space, it's lighter weight. I suspect with the OP stock, you're adding not only a lot of cost but also a lot of weight for 10 additional rounds. Nah. Far better ways to carry more ammo for less money...

This....almost all my AR's have the Minimalist stock. Each to their own I guess.

Or if you think you might really need a second magazine attached to the rifle, there's a $5 option.

Or you can jungle tape them (duct tape them together, upside down). Dunno if the ammo will stay in, but with a magpul style top or a simple piece of duct tape over the top of the expose mag, you should get GTG. A almost free and effective option... used around the globe with different platforms.
