Dumb question…stoked to get my stock today. Buttt just got a bag of hardware,  loose buttplate and stock. Guessing you push the left side roundish screw head button in to adjust length (I kept thinking im supposed to push the square on the other side somehow) and what screws do I use to attach the butt pad? I’m guessing long one on top and one of the four shorts on the bottom? Where am I using the washers? Sorry guys, first time even touching one of these stocks…curious how these mount too.

Anybody got a Gen 3 manual they can shoot over?

I think the two smaller screws and washers are for the buttpad, 2 extra screws spares. The large screw is a spare for the clamping mechanism (already a screw in there). Could be wrong. You push the round button in to adjust stock length.

I apologize, in the rush to get them assembled and shipped, we must have missed the instruction sheets.  The larger screw in the pack is for the banned states, they can remove the spring and adjustment button and use that screw to make it a fixed stock.  The longer of the small screws are for the buttpad, the very short screws are for filling the unused tapped holes.

No worries Jesse! Thanks so much for putting out such an awesome product! Okay, so are the two washers for the butt pad screws or the side holes?

Forgive my ignorance but which of the small screws are the longer ones for the buttpad?

Also, the the Allen head screw on top, is this a two piece or a one piece setscrew?

The setscrew on top is a 2-piece deal.

Awesome, thank you. Just making sure before Install it. Although I think I got all of the same size in the smaller screws.

We were building screwpacks for the G3 SOCOM's today, and apparently our BOM was changed for those.  The BOM listed exactly what you received.  I revised the BOM to include what used to be in those screw packs which is two of 10-32x3/8" screws for the buttpad, and two of the 10-32x1/4" to fill the holes on the gusset (one is extra in case you don't want to use the sling swivel).  The 3/8" screws can also be used to fill the holes, but the 1/4" were intended for that purpose.  
The washers are for use with the sling swivel, we include two for the same reason we include an extra takedown detent and spring, one seems to go "missing" from those kits and it's more cost effective to include a spare with all the kits than to process missing part calls and mail replacements.  

The 1/4-28x1/2" screw is the one that can replace the slotted adjustment button to make the stock a fixed stock for ban states (you'd also remove the spring inside)

The set screw on top of the stock by the sling loop is Lock-Tite'd in and is not meant to be removed, it holds the index pin that prevents the stock from rotating on the tube.

I just reviewed the instructions and they'll be revised soon.  I'll get them uploaded to the site under the instructions page.

Thanks,

Jesse

What’s it gonna take to get this to be a full time production item? Obviously these batches are selling (and I keep missing) but is there any chance of that?

We're splitting time between Gen 3's and 4's, I've got a large order for 3's so they're getting preference.  At this time I don't have plans doing long runs on them.  When we were doing runs of 250-500, the first 50/100 would go out for online retailer orders, then it would take 3-6 months for the balance to trickle out.  With the state of the current market, I don't want to sit on the extra inventory.  I'll probably increase the batch size after we get the Gen 3's through the pipeline, but I don't intend on keeping them actively on the shelf at all times.  This could change if the demand is there, but I doubt that I'll be keeping the excess inventory like we were previously.

Thanks,

Jesse

The next batch of 4's will be a bit, we just released a batch of them and the next ones in the pipeline are G3's.

I need another.  Are these all going to be the shorter ones or are there plans for the longer length of pull ones?  I’d love to have one of those.
7/22/2025 9:13:10 AM EDT
[#31]
We may do a run of the SOCOM Long's if there is enough demand, but I don't foresee that be anytime soon.  The long versions were less than 5% of SOCOM sales and we couldn't justify running and keeping inventory on those.  

Thanks,

Jesse

No, there are a few items that are not eligible for the discount codes, SOCOM stocks are one of them.
