First off the action or trigger group would not even go into the stock. I had to file quite a bit to get it to seat. After I got it in the trigger group set too far into the stock causing the bolt to rub so bad I could not the action to open. I had to poor epoxy into the trigger group cut out to raise it out about 1/16" Now I can cycle but wonder if during shooting it will rub and cause malfunctions. After getting the stock on the rifle I really dont like the large flat surfaces on both sides around the middle. Would have been nice if some contours or something were added there. Also the weight is pretty heavy. I thought this was going to be very light and help lighter up the rifle but it is about the same weight as the synthetic stock with the hardware on the butt. One more thing is that I had to angle the area on the bottom where the M1A wings are located. The stock was cut flat and would not let the action seat into the stock enough to allow the trigger group to close and lock up. Once I cut the angle on the stock I could get it to close. Took about 2 hours to get it all on seemingly working. I am amaze if SA uses this on the CQC socom without any fitting.
