Stock excellent.... rest not so much.... - DoubleStar ACE AR-15 CAR Buttstock

The buttstock and its coating is great. These sell alone for not much less from the actual manufacturer in Taiwan and that is only painted (as well as being out of stock). The proper coating is worth the extra money alone.

Otherwise, what is depicted in the photos is not what is shipping as of this review.

The actual receiver extension is black instead of the proper grey color (has proper two position at least).
The backplate as well as the spanner nut is also a black color instead of grey.
The screw and nut of the release also appear black oxided instead of parked because it had zero prep before submersion in the bath.

All in all it was a low effort. If you can't get the extension stripped and re-anodized, you can go with Norrell's molycoating. But if the proper color matters to you, you probably already knew that....

Still earns its 4 stars because its your single source for the actual buttstock unless you want to play with plastic coatings, and is at least functional.
