So after about a year+ SO finally rolled out their new and improved dogleg.
The original was made from metal (aluminum?) and seemed to garner many positive reviews. It was the ability to actually get a good sight picture that made me want one of these.
After 6 hours of play yesterday I have to say, i really like this stock!
The plastic is heavy duty, no real fear of it breaking. The ability to use my red dot effectively or some long ball was a pleasant surprise.
I'm a big guy so my shoulder-to-scope distance felt a little short with stock. I had to scrunch a little to get my head in for a good sight picture.
(It made me feel like one of those CTU agents holding the HK MP-5 snug up against their body.)
Installation is a snap. All you have to do it fold over the macro line inside the foregrip and screw it into the stock.
Now I don't have a remote at this time so the picture below shows it with a normal attached tank operation. (You will not be able to install the foregrip using a tank option with out some cutting to allow the steel line to hook into your tombstone.)
Pros:
It works! Great sight picture.
Easy to install, no cutting or drilling
Cons:
Cost ($119 plus shipping)
No non-remote option (at the time of purchase).
Felt a little short for a big long-armed guy like me.
