I really like this stock for my AK! Granted, it takes some getting used to, but it seems to get easier the more I fold it! It doesn't have adjustable length, but the length is perfect for me! It is about as minimalistic as you can get which besides size, this cuts down on the rifle's weight. I also purchased the cheek riser and it works pretty slick too! I'd recommend this stock to anyone with an AK who is looking to some customizing on their AK!

I think that L2D barrels are among the best on the market. I've got several of them and have had zero problems with them. I prefer the stainless for both aesthetic and wear reasons. The stainless barrels are beautiful and as they start to show wear, the wear isn't as noticeable as the cerakote models. I have usually purchased them when they are on sale so that they are very competitively priced. I also have the black ones. They are just as functionable as the stainless but the wear isn't as prevalent. Face it though, any cerakote finish will eventually show wear.

I have been looking at Faxon barrels for sometime and purchased a G19 series when they were on sale. I installed it into one of my G19s and I have been very pleased with it's performance! The barrel is very aesthetically pleasing which is a nice addition. The one in my G19 is without issues so I decided to try the G17 barrel.

I've used various brands of barrels and L2D is the brand I like best! I have zero issues with them! They are a little pricey but I can often find them on sale so that they are within my budget. They are 1:10 rifling which is a plus for me. And they are fluted! Very stylish design! I also like the crown of the barrel which will aid in little to no harm to the barrel if dropped.

I can't tell you how it works as I've bought it for a Live Free Armory G19 Slide that I had purchased earlier. All I can say is that it drops into the slide nicely, pretty much a perfect fit. Neither the barrel or slide have been used yet.

I ordered this plate for the Live Free Elite series slide because I figured that it would be a perfect fit for the slide being the same series. And it fits perfectly! I don't know how it would fit any other slide and I don't intend on using it on a different slide.

I was looking for a larger than factory grip for my Freedom Ordnance FX-9 and it had to be a grip without the back strap since the FX-9 lower is shorter than an AR lower. Most flat top grips are very thin and don't fill your hand leaving your index finger far into the trigger. This grip fills the hand, and I have average sized hands, so that your finger fits the trigger before the first knuckle so as to not "pull" your shot. I didn't like the over molded, slightly sticky feel at first but now like it in cooler weather. Great grip for the FX-9!

I'm new to trigger replacement and I wanted to replace the trigger on my Freedom Ordnance FX-9 Carbine. I just couldn't live with the 7-8 pound factory trigger. Freedom Ordnance recommends that you not replace the trigger as it could cause you problems. I researched them on you tube and someone said that they replaced their trigger with a CMC trigger so I thought I'd give it a try. I used the 3.5 lb. single stage curved trigger. Wow! What a difference! No problems at all and very easy to install following the instructions. I also saw where someone advised you use KNS nonrotating trigger pins so I bought a set of those to use instead of the pins that came with the trigger. This setup has created a whole different and wonderful shooting situation! This CMC trigger is a great addition to my carbine and I highly recommend them over a factory trigger! I don't think that they are 3.5 lb. though. Mine snaps at about 3! Very crisp and a short reset. Get one!

For buying other things from OpticsPlanet.com I received a $75 gift certificate. It was very much appreciated and very easy to apply to my next purchase! I applied it to a Sig Sauer red dot sight which was already on sale and got a very good sight for a ridiculously low price! Thank you OpticsPlanet!
