Any sneaky pics?
I assume that M1a1 won't be produced?
Depends if you can find a M1A1 folding stock, they don't go for less than £150 in UK...and if you can get them for cheaper than that...let us know where and how haha

huh, I thought about making your own. Possible?
Thing is because it's not just a wooden stock, it's a bit harder to do, you've got to replicate the spring hinged metal folding parts and the leather plate on the butt plate...so its a bit hard.

Im gonna reach for my wallet and get one from SOF. I've found various retailers for them...and £150 is the cheapest so far.
There's a para stock on ebay its at £85 ($125) atm but unfortunatly international bidders are not allowed.
ok lads,
just hold on with the para stocks for now, as i havant got one to try out the new action on etc,
and i,d hate it if you were to get one and it didant bleeding well fit,,,,

Excuse the language, but that does look the shit. Hats off to you warren. The stock, is that an original?
Looks lovely... Look forward to seeing it finished (without bayonet lug etc)...
Any idea of price yet?
What's the internals and mag?
Nice 1 Warren, wouldn't mind putting my name down for 1 too, the rear iron sight was predominantly just the O ring, rather than it having the whole adjustable unit, as with what Rich said about the bayonet lug
ye i know mate
flip over sight simulare to the N04 battle sight, rather nice and simple,
the mags will be converted real steal shell with an mp7 mag fitted, giving 50 odd bb,s
no idear on price, need to get the castings first to work out the costings and take it from there, but defo 400ish + but not to much, well thats what i,m hopeing
ye real wood stock, a buggered one i had hense the rather large split in the fore end
warren
ps been looking at the para stock, with a little very careful work it will fit ok, and i mean very careful
