[Last Edit: JTDistributing]
I was asked by multiple people at SHOT show to do a run of Gen 3 SOCOM stocks. I'm considering making a run of 500 pieces but I am proposing to make a change to the tube and only have 4 stops instead of 5 like the original. The first and last would be in the same position, but there would be more material between the stops to help prevent the rounding issue we had with that generation locking mechanism. This would also make these discernable from the original stocks to prevent misrepresentation. The only thing that I cannot reproduce is the original buttpad, we made a new mold a couple of years ago while the old one was on it's last leg. The new pads have a different pattern on the back, are made from a slightly different material than the original, but same overall profile. Those would run around $240 for the buttstock with gusset, foam, new buttpad, and screw pack. Let me know if you're interested.
Thanks, Jesse Edited because I wasn't paying attention, I meant the square locking version.

It will be the third generation, with the square lock.
Thanks, Jesse |

How about another round of those SOCOM All Ye Faithful patches, this time with the new Gen 3.1 Throwback SOCOM and OD green?
 Missed out on the first patch, would instantly buy one from another run. |

So interested in one of these
 any updates on the release date? Will this be a one-time run or will they come in batches?

As of now, I’m anticipating this being a one-time run on these stocks. If the demand is there we may do some additional batches, but they most likely won’t be a stocking item.
I’ll look into doing a batch of the retro SOCOM all ye faithful stocks and see if that can happen to coincide with the stocks. Thanks, Jesse |

I just checked in and there's been a couple of delays and they may be 3 weeks delayed, but we're working on trying to reduce that delay.
Thanks, Jesse |

Thanks, Jesse When you say three week delay would that make the drop potentially on 7/17 instead of 5/26 (original 10 week drop date)? |

We just got the first partial shipment of the Gen 3 SOCOM's back from anodize and got a few assembled. Attached are pictures in comparison to my original rattle canned Gen 3 so everyone can see the differences. They'll be going live on the site next week, I'll update with the drop info as soon as it's ready. I've still got to get real pictures taken, edited, and the page created on the site.

I just noticed in the picture that the notches in the new stock are not very visible. There are only 4 positions on the new production as opposed to the 5 in the original. Here's a closeup of the difference between the notches.

Are you doing a sizable run of these or is stock going to be limited to where we need to refresh your site? |

There are going to be less than 200 available individually, this drop will be around 50 units. Anodize is running behind and sent me a partial so I could get these out on time. I went for full retro packaging rather than our new boxes, the same way they would have been at the time, in a poly bag containing the stock, buttpad (new mold), screw/swivel pack, and instruction sheet, they'll be dropping at $244.99.
Thanks, Jesse |

Looks like these will be going live on the site at 7PM EST (1900 EST) on Wednesday. The page should be up tomorrow with the real pictures of the stock rather than my phone pics.
Thanks, Jesse Edited because I got distracted and didn't finish my thought before answering the phone. |

Sorry guys, Dad called mid post and I didn't proofread my post before hitting submit. I deeply apologize for the confusion by my omission, I screwed up. The plan was to have the page live today and drop tomorrow night, but I omitted the day Wednesday, July 12 from the original post. I'll post the link today for the page after it's up.
