obiwanbonjovi 337 Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 When will a left side folder option be available? We are pushing as hard as we can for left side, and for shorter versions. Should have a huge batch of everything off to anodizing soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WUNDERWAFFEN 21 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Any plans on making a folding mech that is flush with the bottom of the receiver? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
obiwanbonjovi 337 Posted November 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Any plans on making a folding mech that is flush with the bottom of the receiver? No, we are unable to make the bottom any higher without compromising too much elsewhere. They sit at the same level as a galil folding stock, and should not interfere with anything.

dcgregorya 5 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I'd buy this if I would accept the standard AR style recoil pads. Would give me something to put my limbsaver on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
avatar 4 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) there is a qd sling attachment point on the hinge. Sorry, no plans for a cut tang version. The reason we could keep our hinge so narrow, was by using extra length. A cut tang version couldn't be any shorter, so we see no reason to make one. A cut tang version would be great for people like me that cut the tang (and now wish they hadn't) but I'm not sure how much of a market there would be. Wouldn't a simple solution be to weld the tang back on? I'm assuming the block attaches with two bolts -- one thru the tang and one under the recoil spring mount thingy. The stock may work w/o a tang using only the under recoil spring mounting bolt and drilling the bottom of reciever and tappinf the block for a mounting bolt (Button head cap screw for low profile) or maybe hiding it under the PG. Redoing the reciever block to utilize the pistol grip angled nut/fitting like on other internal blocks might be a good idea for added strength and would make it usable for us dunderheads who cut our tangs w/o any mods to the block on endusers' part. Awesome piece of engineering. As a constructive/creative/useless suggestion --how 'bout a stamped steel triangle soviet style stock on there or maybe move the bend forward some for a more triangular appearance (WARSAW pact length might be the ticket). And of course more pics please!!!!!! Edit: just took closer look at pics. For a lower mounting point end users would need to pin or bolt in a block inside the block for a bottom bolt to secure to. Could also use an button head cap screw from each side at the bottom rear for a higher profile attachment if you have no tang. I'm pretty sure the folder can work w/o a tang if your handy with tools. I think a left side folder with the stock raised slightly - centered on the hinge would be pretty cool. Edited November 6, 2012 by avatar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

traintrax 12 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Why would someone pick a right hand folder over a left hand folder. I have never had one but notice that most of the Russian factory folders are left hand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have never had one but notice that most of the Russian factory folders are left hand. I originally wanted a left folder but after reading up on it, I think I will go with a right folder now. I will never fire the gun with stock folded so having it fold to the left does not have any more advantages (to me). With a right folder, it is much easier and quick to deploy, as seen in the VEPR video above. Edited November 8, 2012 by KennyFSU Quote Link to post Share on other sites

reapur 1 Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 question for the experienced fellas here, how does one decide which LOP length to go with? Also what are the beneies of left folder vs right folder. I'm going to SBS my saiga12 and I'm getting one of these stocks I just can't decide on the variables. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
