jo3ruff 0 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I'n considering going with a folding stock in my conversion. I like the overall look, but it appears as though they may make the gun somewhat akward to use. Particularly those that fold to the right, as I'm right handed. Any thoughts, experiences, or opinions would be welcome. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fourreel 0 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 ATI has a new 6 position stock that also folds to the left. It locks in place short of the optics rail. It will not lock with the optics mounted however. So, just use the lever lock mounts, NP. Check out one on my S12...still a work in progress! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

engbob 0 Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 I just put a Romanian side folder on my 308, but it would fit the 223 fine. I'm not a fan of that giant folding mechanism on the ATI, but to each his own. You can get the Romy side folder at blackjack http://www.blackjackbuffers.com/index.php?...products_id=237 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mstranglr 9 Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 I love the Rommy side-folders, but they make the gun too short to be California legal, so I have them on my pump-action AKs. They are great for making a light concealable gun and they are fast into action. The Ace folders are the best though. You can make them fold left or right. Mine lock to the left with optics too.

jo3ruff 0 Posted June 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 I really like the clean, minimalist look of the Romanian side folder, and luckily I live in a very firearm permissive state. Do they feel solid when they're deployed? I was thinking about going with the Bulgarian, but if the Romanian works well (and is about 1/3 the cost) I'll likely go with that one.

BobAsh 582 Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 I use them excusively, but mainly because they store smaller. I never really shoot them folded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azrial 1,091 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I wonder how this stock counts as compliance parts ? They advertise their products as US made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Floyd9 30 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I have a romy push-button on my WASR....It went on and stayed on Very solid locking both ways, rifle is functional with it folded, AND it is a breeze to fold and unfold. Perfect for a 7.62x39, probably equally suited for a .223. Very robust. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
