MAGPUL UBR

AR/M4 AR General Discussion
1

For people who have been waiting for Magpul to release their new UBR, it is currently available on their website. Its preproduction, and is available in limited quantities. I’ve been using these “preproduction” models for awhile, and have found them to be high quality, and well laid out. There are several improvements over the initial UBR prototype that I’ve been using for the past year or so.

I know some people won’t want to buy a preproduction model, but I don’t see that as an issue for most who are familiar with the company.

Shoulda seen this comin.

I bought a pre production CTR when those were getting ready to be released and never had a problem with it.

Why oh why didn’t I have some funds reserved for this.

I don’t feel like cutting into the Masada funds…

fivepointoh,

I was able to get one of the real early preproduction CTRs. I’ve got newer, nicer looking CTRs laying around the Stick compound, but that beat up one still rides with me daily on my duty carbine.

Come on five…you can cut into that Masada fund. You’ll recoup the $$ in no time…you know you want one or a few.

I hear ya guys.

I think I’m g/g cry myself asleep now. :stuck_out_tongue:

I really didn’t give it much thought, I just went ahead and ordered it. I know it’s cutting into the funds for something else, but it should be worth it.

Forgive my ignorance, but I’m trying to understand what ROLE this UBR would fill that other excellent Magpul stocks do not… :confused:, besides looking bad a$$.

It seems uber-heavy duty for a 5.56 weapon (although it says it was really designed for larger calibers in an AR format), with shock absorption and all… It is also somewhat heavy (1.3 pounds)…

Can someone quickly explain the ROLE this stock will fill?

I think the stationary cheek weld would be nice along w/ the fact that it will help balance out rifles pretty well w/ it’s weight.

11

I’ll tell you what Pat-

I’ll buy one and take a picture of it alongside my new ORF 74 when that comes in!

ETA: Stick- what’s this one come with that the production will not come with standard?

ETA2: I see- I just finally learned to read :wink: It’s on it’s way along with a few stickers for the car and some other crap I can’t even remember…

12

Any idea when a DE version will come out?

13

You do that and when I’m back home I’m driving 45 minutes across the border to come play w/ it.

14

Desert Eagle?

Pat- no problem.

15

Stickers? I’m missing out on being able to slap Magpul stickers on cruisers?

I can tell IAD that its a sticker saying that I love all animals and they won’t touch me… :smiley:

ETA- Note to any recruits or applicants, lying to IAD is generally considered bad, and I don’t recommend it, nor have I found them to have a sense of humor in most cases that have involved me.

16

No idea.

17

just bought one :smiley:

18

Actually it should have been FDE = Flat Dark Earth

No fair! :eek: :frowning:

19

I agree, FDE 20 round PMAGs would have been much cooler in the picture…

Damn you and your Magpul swag! :eek: :stuck_out_tongue:
