Hey Fokes,
Sorry if this is a question that has been asked before, But I searched the forum and Google, and came up with nothing. Be Mindful that I am a NooB to the world of AR’s and other rifle’s for that matter.
Has anybody brought Magpul CTR Stocks from AIMSurplus, and can anybody attest to their product as far as quality / authenticity in concerned.
They have great prices on their website and offer free shipping and I wanted to know if anyone actually checked their product after they have purchased it to make sure it was in fact authentic.
I know a lot of people and vendors have been selling either Knock-offs and / or even the PTS versions (Arisoft World) as the real steels.
So if anybody can share or even post an actual pic (Picture) of the product, that would be great.
What i’m looking for are the words on the sides of the stock, The Button, and the Magpul Insignia / Logo
Thanks in advance and again sorry if this has already been covered.
I purchase routinely from Aim and have total confidence in their products. I purchased three Magpul CTR stocks in the past month for $56 bucks each …great price!
I recieved my Magpul CTR stock on Saturday. Although the D.A Mailman delivered it to a neighbor’s house 2 houses down to my left across the street instead of mine.
Amyway, So I opened it up and i’m looking at the inside of the friction lock and what I see looks like its broken. I will show you all a picture. Someone please let me know if this is normal. If u have a picture of yours on the inner part where the Buffer Tube goes. But right at the bottom. I can better show you all the. I can tell you.
Look at the bottom or . In this case because of the orientation of the picture, its on the right. But officially look at the bottom portion of the stock. Thats what we will be focuaing on. I will point out the part in the next photo.
Open area. When I activate or engage the friction lock. I don’t see anything happening. I don’t have it connected to a buffer tube or anything for actual testing. This is just a review to see how it works.
I’m not sure if that is a design feature or an unimportant area of plastic but all of mine have that piece.
Given that yours is new and that my stocks still work fine, I’m going to go with it doesn’t matter
