I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS THING!!!! It's modular, slips right into my stock (GL SHOCK or ANY GL stock) and is quite solid, it has just a little play, but it helps with loading on the bipod, and with the shock it doesn't move anyway, the stock does the work really....I think it's right on par with the Atlas monopod and with this, I don't need to drill a stock or have a pic rail on the bottom, so I think it's ideal in it's NEVER in the way till I want to deploy it....Just overall a REALLY nice addition to my rifle, and again, FAB Defense is a fantastic company, though admittedly a lot of the stuff is geared towards AK's now it seems, there's some nice stuff still that they do for the Yanks weapon of choice....
Cons:
- Need a FAB stock to work with it
Best Used for:
- Precision shooting, Hunting from a prone fixed position
Would recommend: Yes

This is a cool addition , well made, not rock solid but definitely helps. If anyone is wondering if you can swap the base pad for a different style, the answer is yes . You will notice there is no release button (for the pad like it is on the stock). It is more or less a friction fit. Push down from the top and it will slide off. I had to tap mine with a nylon hammer to get it started but it was simple enough. Some instructions in the package would have saved me some head scratching trying to figure it out.
Would recommend: Yes

Added this to my FAB Defense AR-15 Survival Buttstock w/Built-in Mag Carrier. Super easy install with nice fitment. The extendable pod is a tiny bit sloppy but with a push of the side mounted button, the aluminum pod extends to just under 3" with a snap. It can be shortened by pushing the retaining mechanism, then selecting the desired length. At full extension there is also a aluminum screw out adjustment to make it a full length of 6" with a rubber mounted base. The mono pod fully retracts into the buttstock and does not interfere or cause hangups with clothing or sling. This buttstick does add a little over 1.5" to the end of the stock but can be adjusted out using the sliding buttstock. It does have the standard Fab Defense rubber shoulder pad and quick attachment mounts on both sides.
Pros:
- keeps buttstock out of dirt and off rocks
Cons:
- little sloppy when extended
Best Used for:
- target and bench shooting
Would recommend: Yes

Compliments the aesthetics to my Savage 110BA Stealth WinMag. The weight and size of this item has little to no effect on any negative rifle performance. The spring loaded shaft is very efficient when deployed and returned for concealment. I did install the butt-stock on a FAB Defense stock. I do not know if it fits other brands. This butt-stock is sturdy and well made. Able to withstand the elements and the punishment of duty. Very Positive tool for rapid deployment of rear stability on your weapon. Extremely Useful.
Best Used for:
- Quick and Accurate Deployment
Would recommend: Yes

This is a perfect solution to anyone who loves to perfect precision shots at any distance. This Mon-pod if used in conjunction with a good quality Bi-Pod, will definitely improve your accuracy under most any conditions. The rifle stands alone until ready for you to send the shot. A must have in any hunting expedition or anti terrorist removal. God Bless the USA and thanks for The Israeli manufacturers for making this product available. All My Fab Defense Products from the Mako Group are great add on's, and upgrades to any platform. "It looks extremely well on the Fab Defense Survival Butt-stock with the 10 round backup magazine."
Would recommend: Yes

I had previously purchased the FAB stock, I was unsure if this addition was needed with my build, but upon shooting my rifle a few times I felt like this would enhance my shooting experience with my rifle. It is a very good addition and in the field I feel like it will enhance my shooting. I can recommend this product to anyone that has purchased the FAB adjustable stock.
Pros:
- Looks great
- Fits well
- Does what i expected it to do
- felt like it completed my stock
Would recommend: Yes

Find this monopod to be easy to install and easy to use. Works well for fine tuning longer distance shots. Made of decent material and craftsman ship good. Only issue would be its a little loose when extended, but manageable. Three other family members bought the monopod for their AR's after seeing and using mine.
Would recommend: Yes

Very sturdy built. Fits perfectly on the gun. I would recommend this item to all ar 15 gun enthusiasts who have the shock stock on the gun. It doesn't change a thing about the accuracy when shooting & stabilizes it perfectly. I've shot my gun several times since adding it and it's spot on every time.
Would recommend: Yes
