jtallen83 Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Is there a better stock for butt-stroking than the regular A-2? I recall all the abuse I handed out to my M-16 so I trust it to give a good blow. Has there been any advances in the field that would make any real difference? I'm thinking about a carbine but haven't handled a stock on one that I feel I could really bash something with.
unforgiven Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 I got a Rodgers super stock that seem pretty solid,I also use MagPul and RRA. But the best basher in the world is my M1 Garand,if I add my 1942 bayonet then both ends are equally effective. <thumbsup>
blue109 Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) aside from being the awesomest thread title ever...from several different angles... I think my UBR would be a pretty effective maiming device. you can even add the metal strike plate to maximize results. it blew every other stock out of the water in the drop test. nothing else was even close. it's got some heft to it, and a steel rail all the way down the middle.

98Z5V Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Ever since the Troy Battle Axe came out, I've wanted to smash someone in the head with it to test it out. It's ugly, but I bet you could really crush someone with it. That's another alternative.
jtallen83 Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Posted June 15, 2014 Thanks guys, I knew I could get some good butt-stroking info here, now I know where to focus my attention. <thumbsup> I expected more off color comments ??? ??? ??? I'm torn between being proud of your will power and disappointed in not being thrashed for such a softball pitch <dontknow> <laughs> <lmao>
98Z5V Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 There's a few of us here that know the true form of bayonet fighting. Nothing beats the buttstroke/slash of a good rifle! "BUTTSTROKE SERIES TO THE HEAAAAAAAAD!!! EXECUTE!!!"
gnatshooter Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Upon looking at the buttstock on my DPMS LR-308, I have to wonder about the strength of how the buttstock is attached to the lower receiver. Seems to me that no matter how strong your buttstock might be, you'd do irreversible damage to the receiver where it joins the buttstock, when swinging it against, i.e., heads. Any historians here? Was the original AR-15 battle rifle designed for double duty as a club? Earlier military rifles were.
98Z5V Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Go to Basic Training, and you'll get more than you ever wanted to know. You don't swing it like a club.

I'd add anything with a non-protruding pistol grip like an AR or AK, but something along the Garand, M14, shotgun-style butts...minimal hand movement required, only a shift of the trigger finger. Rene, with that M590 I'm surprised you didn't mention that...WITH the bayonet! Yeah baby!
blue109 Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 when I do some butt stroking, I like it to be a surprise. I don't like to announce my intentions. (easier to get forgiveness than permission) and you can always say it was an accident. for this reason I require maximum stiffness right from the go. if you go for it, and your tool collapses a little bit, the victim has a chance to escape, and a second strike is unlikely. you really need that sniper one shot mentality for an effective butt stroke.
jtallen83 Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Posted June 15, 2014 Go to Basic Training, and you'll get more than you ever wanted to know. You don't swing it like a club. Amen! I heard a personal recollection about this from a Vietnam Vet, he recounts his opponents lower jaw was crushed while his M-16 came out unscathed. Stroke, not swing!

You'r right about that 590A,you could drive a tank over that shotty.But I still think the Garand,1903 and M14/M1A are the kings.Head crushers and door busters.Just my 2 mags.
jtallen83 Posted June 16, 2014 Author Report Posted June 16, 2014 Add the WWI P17 to the list, solid heavy stock with a steel butt plate, heavy as all get out!
StainTrain Posted June 16, 2014 Report Posted June 16, 2014 I came here expecting something else. The title is misleading....... >:D
98Z5V Posted June 16, 2014 Report Posted June 16, 2014 For the most part, we disappointed you. With real information, this time... <lmao>

Robocop1051 Posted June 16, 2014 Report Posted June 16, 2014 Due to the secondary lock, I wouldn't use anything other than a Magpul stock. Preferably the CTR or ACS-L for collapsing stocks... The PRS would be a great finisher.

The PRS would be a great finisher. You aren't kidding, the PRS is a weapon unto itself.... I don't trust mine at all until it's had at least 6 beers, and even then you can't turn your back on it!

Toolndie7 Posted June 16, 2014 Report Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) The PRS would definatley knock somebody out. All though butt stroking is best preformed with the following butt. Edited June 16, 2014 by Toolndie7
gnatshooter Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 The stocks on a lot of .22 squirrel guns can be pretty 'assaultive'. Gunman Knocks Out Hotel Clerk During Robbery In Hershey - CBS Philly - June 29, 2014http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2014/06/29/gunman-knocks-out-hotel-clerk-during-robbery-in-hershey/Police are searching for a gunman who reportedly knocked out a central Pennsylvania hotel clerk with the butt end of an assault rifle during a robbery. Police say the suspect stole about $200 plus tickets to Hersheypark, a nearby amusement park, before fleeing.
Robocop1051 Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 I recant my last submission... I got to looking into my "box-o-shiit" and found an old Colt CAR stock.... not the cheapo plastic one, but the all metal version. When you have to crush the skull of a disorderly insurrectionist, accept no substitute.
