[NewbieDave]

Looks like more stock options for the M1A shooters....



And it's only $299.

Interesting. Looks like a ripoff of the JAE.

what i was thinking

[slappomatt]

yeah so its a plastic JAE at half the cost?

[NoExpert]

Yeah, definitely a JAE ripoff, but look at the grip... That looks lower than the top of the trigger to me. So you get a copy of someone else's hard work AND you need a fixed 10 round magazine. NICE.

Nice price.

[Sniper3142]

Yup, sure looks like a ripoff of the JAE-100 stock to me.



JAE Enterprises should be informed (and now they have been).

I got to handle one back in September, me personally I wouldn't buy one, the finish looked nice enough but just not my cup of tea.

from what I have found online it is made by promag

Looks nicer than a JAE at half the cost. If it does the same thing, what's the problem? LOL!

[X-NewYawker]

It DOESN'T do the same thing. That's the point.
The JAE Stock completely stabilizes your rifle in a very expensively made aluminum bedding system. This is a drop in plastic stock. It just rips off the major design cues of the JAE so people who want one that looks like it but don't care about performance (or the morality of buying a rip off) can get it cheap.

Here is the real deal --



The angle around the cheek piece, the palm shelf, the thumbwheel, location of the flush cups, the contour around the mag well -- even at a quick glance these are all directly ripped off to make people think they are getting a JAE stock -- We went over this before, but if you can't see how this is WRONG -- if Promag wanted to compete with JAE, they would have come up with an entirely NEW design, and if it was better or cheaper, people would buy it.

Also, as pointed out, the pistol grip on the Promag appears as if it is not compliant for CA and the stock telescopes, so that'a another baddie.

[X-NewYawker]

God, that JAE looks good. AND makes your groups smaller and gives you rails to mount anything you want AND allows =you to use a scope without a lame strap on cheek piece.

AND on sale for the SHOT show.

[X-NewYawker]

It took the JAE people TEN YEARS or so to perfect this stock, and someone can buy one, make a mold off of it and sell a cheap knock off. This is the stuff about Chinese goods that makes us crazy.

Yuck, I don't see why promag would move into the market of making stocks when they can't even figure out how to make a magazine.

Old thread but does anyone know if it California legal?
