Scott Clearman Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 I am building a DPMS pattern rifle. It will be a 16" mid-length gassed barrel. From experience with scoped AR15's, a collapsible stock will be a bit too short to be comfortable. But an A2 length seems too long. I'm fine with and actually prefer a fixed stock. What options are there for something in the middle? If it matters, this rifle will suppressed most of the time. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The traditional MagPul MOE RIfle Stock, and the Fixed Carbine Stock. Here's the data on them. I have both, and they're both great. https://www.magpul.com/products/moe-rifle-stock?ProductColor=VO343 https://www.magpul.com/products/moe-fixed-carbine-stock-mil-spec?ProductColor=VO343 LOP for each is 13.5" and 12.2", respectively.

Chuck Plissken Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 there's also a A1 stock(old school). it uses the rifle tube but is about 3/4" shorter than the A2. It discards the spacer that the A2 uses. I have both A1 and A2 stocks and it's a slight but noticable differance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the magpul fixed stock would be better in that regard. Being comfortable using a scope is one of the main criteria for this build.

Belt Fed Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 This is a 22 but you can get an idea what one looks on an AR15. it's the same size as one. It also came with a spacer but didn't need it for the open sights. you may on the scope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMan3k Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 Have the LuthAR MBA-1 and like the adjustability a lot. Did have to adjust the cheek well back a bit so it wouldn't hit the charging handle, not a big deal to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
