Carbine accuracy

[Patrick Chadwick]

Has anyone ever made a direct comparison for accuracy between a carbine barrelled system in the normal stock and the same system in a folding stock? I suspect that the result would probably be highly dependent on the rigidity of the stock hinge.

I have a 3.05M Inland (arsenal rebuild) with an M.E. of about 1.5. I've shot it a lot in the S.A. M2 stock it came with, and in one of the more expensive Italian (repro) folders. I don't see any noticeable difference in accuracy between the use of those two stocks. I expected it would be worse with the folder, but it my case it wasn't. - Bob

I have also fired both stocks at 100 yards from a rest, I find less chance to cant the stock with the pistol grip M1A1 stock but the
cheek piece is not that comfortable. Accuracy was both the same on targets
