I'd like to see a modern AK stock offering from US PALM...

Hello US PALM,

I realize that simple ComBlock polymer and wood stocks for the AK rifle are tried and true, but I think US PALM could offer a more modern rendition of the standard AK stock that includes some nice features. What I'm thinking is... keep it simple. A solid polymer stock that is shorter that Warsaw length and has some more versatile sling attachment points. Something like the Sully stock comes to mind:

I think a new AK stock that gets the shooter's shoulder more in line directly behind the barrel will also be beneficial at managing recoil. I don't really care about adjustable length. Perhaps offer 3 different stock lengths (a Warsaw length, one 3/4" shorter, and another 1/2" shorter than that) and you'd have all bases covered.

I think a stock of this type could also aid in close quarters maneuverability and help balance modern AK rifles with optics, rails, and lights attached.

You could even perhaps offer an optional cheek riser that could be added for rifles that have high-mounted optics? But I wouldn't want to sacrifice a solid, uniform cheek weld for this feature.

Also... give us a somewhat grippy, but slim recol pad similar to that of the Vltor iMod stock. (Don't need any storage compartments, however.... remember, simple is the goal.)

Just my thoughts. Anyone else concur? I'd like to hear other's input on a stock such as this.

Thanks for your time.

The Sulley Stock or Troy's Battleax stock (which seems sort of a ripoff of the Sulley Stock anyways). I'm not against the Ace stock setup, but it's flipping expensive, and it's really the only game in town. I'm sure that something other than that would be a good seller, especially with all the AK's out there that are crying for a folding stock with cheek weld.

How about we stay away from metro-AR type stuff on tehse rifles and design something from the ground up that looks evil and as ComBloc klingon as Boris Yeltsin!

1). Attachments to fit all AK trunions
2). Folding capability
3). Attachments for cheek height and LOP.
4). Strong enough to beat a hadji-tango to death during questioning

Seriously guys....if it doesn't look combloc, I have no interest in even selling it.

Shit, USP could even do something similar to the add-on triangle folder that K-Var has, just make it Warsaw length, not NATO.

hmmm...

I guess we'll have to start from scratch since our current working prototype isn't Warsaw LOP

Bonus points for me if it is available in some exotic, endangered tropical hardwood that is non-sustainably harvested by exploited workers.

I would buy something along these lines!!!

Ha Ha. It still looks better than Crapco. It meets a lot of Gabe's criteria!

Yup, that's basically exactly what I had in mind, Gabe. Except I prefer a solid (non-folding stock). I simply posted the Sully stock as a visual reference for my idea. It's simple, solid, and bulletproof.
