| If someone had a UBR on backorder, like at AIM Surplus, for instance, how long should he expect to wait before they get some in? Obviously, this is a purely hypothetical question that is posed without any expectation of anything more than a best-guess answer.. |

I would expect to see many more in the market in the coming months. |

I wonder how long before Bravo Company sells out. |

Can someone tell me what's so special about this plastic stock that makes it worth $265?  What am I missing? It seems to me that it's priced somewhere between ridiculous and out of your freakin mind.Build one, then come back when you know what you are talking about. |

I wonder how long before Bravo Company sells out. The better question is how long will it be before all the UBR's bought from Bravo Co. are on EBAY for $350...

if someone had a black one on backorder at AIMSURPLUS it already shipped. I think I am on the waiting list for a FDE from you I hope at least. I picked up one of them from Bravo today now the ? I have for Magpul is when are some FDE and even more so OD UBR's going to hit the shelves. Hey Brian you got a waiting list for OD UBR's? I'm thinking I want one in each flavor 
I SEE NOW  Looks like a little looking first and I would have saved ~$25

BTW, Bravo Company's out already, but AIMSURPLUS still has them. And for less, too. |

Pretty much all that... + Rock solid adjustible stock with no wiggle, no waggle, no wobble and a consistent cheek weld. Only negative IMO is that it is heavy. |

It seems to me that it's priced somewhere between ridiculous and out of your freakin mind.I don't think a lot of people realize what goes into the UBR stock. Which is understandable seeing as this item has not been available to really get a hands on feel for it. The UBR is 1.25 lbs compared to the .50 CTR lbs. About 70% of this stock is machined from aluminum with a polymer over molding. The UBR is a great rock solid collapsible stock. In my opinion and experience with it, it is better suited for an SPR/RECCE style setup where you are using a 9" or longer rail system. The UBR provides a perfect counter balance for 12" rail setup but, the UBR is not for everybody. |

 Woohoo! Ordered one at Aimsurplus for $251.76 shipped! UP YOURS to previous price gougers! Yep, just grabbed one from there as well... I got it because my 16"/11" stealth is nose heavy with a CTR on it...I was gonna go with the ACS but it wasn't enough weight to balance out my weapon...This UBR should be perfect!!!!!!!!!! Glad I have patience, or i would have bought one for 350.00...

We threw some insane design requirements at them in terms of functionality and strength and the UBR is the result. |
