I couldn't resist it any longer. I have been wanting a 14.5" SOCOM upper for a while. Since they are giving you a free BCG with it, I thought it was as good a time as any...

I love his setups Why wouldn't he? It's always there if he needs it & it doesn't hinder him or anyone else from using a RDS like a RDS is supposed to be used. BTW the AR upper receiver he's using is referred to as a "flat top." |

The only time I notice anything like that is when the rifle is hanging. The sling kinda bunches up in the QD itself. I haven't spent a lot of time with the stock yet though. It just came out of the box a few hours ago. ETA It's pretty sweet how the sling lays when you shoulder the gun though. |

It's a pretty futuristic looking stock but I can see that BCM did their research with this stock. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Originally Posted By Timbo:

Any opinions/reviews posted yet between the new BCM stock vs. the new Magpul SL stock? Apologies if I overlooked the obvious. I had the SL for a week and returned it. I like how it locks up with the metal tabs inside the tube area. Things I didn't like it was heavy for what it was it was too big/bulky. Also it felt cheap compared to the BCM. The BCM is lighter and IMO a better made stock it really is almost perfect. Just needs a wider cheek weld. It's very well thought out and extremely innovative in that it's modular and seems to be upgradable. As always YMMV PIC THREAD Magpul SL BCM GF Mod 0 |

KMR 11.5" ELW Fluted upper fresh from BCM, with a user installed ALG Defense single port comp and KAC BUIS, Micro on Larue mount. Lower is my plain ol' Noveske gen 1 with A1 grip and LMT stock with user installed IWC QD cup. Upper feels incredibly light. I don't own a postal scale like the fancy boys, but I'd bet it's close to 5 pounds as pictured (empty mag). |
