It's heavier than the old factory axis ii stock but way more substantial and has more options. - Magpul Industries Savage AXIS Short Action Rifle Stock

My gun has the old gen I AXIS II stock not the new factory stock which is closer to this stock and fits the old guns too. This Magpul stock is definitely heavier than the older AXIS II stock but MUCH more substantial and it's worth it to me. The old AXIS II stock is spindly. Where you right hand holds the stock it's crazy thin. Yes, it worked but it's just spindly. I have a 243 so I was getting by fine with it but the Magpul has a much more substantial grip, a pistol grip and you can adjust the length of pull up to 2 inches in half inch increments. I didn't use it, but it has an insert for left hand guns. It also has the MLOCK attachment system if you want to use that. It dropped right in and free floats the barrel like stock maybe more than stock. It has an engraved stock colored F that is exposed when you take the safety off but I filled in the F with florescent red paint. Magpul makes nice products in general and for the price it would be hard to do better.
