Funny how we drifted to my other pet peeve cropping up in the one line auction sites more and more: putting/having a $200 fake/reproduction stock on a beater, mix-master $500 m1, especially non inland, does not make it a $1200 carbine!

That looks very nice. Would love to have a repro that nice to house mine while the original is off for range use or for showing the rifle to others. Last time I showed it off in the original stock the guy almost dropped it deploying the stock.

I built one after years of waiting for a folder to show up. I built it for my then live in love to shoot. She tried it once and didn't like...after all that. The new ones sure look good.

The bans on hi-cap mags/folding stocks/etc. are ridiculous. Nowadays the jihadis/nutjobs/bangers don't bother to try to conceal anything and they will always have the hi-cap mags and weapons of their choice no matter what dumbass ban is in place for the rest of us. I got my only unmolested paratrooper from folks who were moving to Californistan and they couldn't own it there. It had been in their family for 70+ years.
