Anyone tried the Ace folding adapter on their AK? I'm curious how well it works and how robust it is....
I don't really care that much about the foam and from what I understand it's not very durable anyway. I'm mainly just wondering why the extra bar in the AK? It's not a big deal but there has to be some reason why they take the extra time to add that piece so what is that reason? I do think the AR version looks cleaner without it and again, I think the larger top tube of the AR version has some benefit too.If the foam peice means that much to you, well, it is foam. I am imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to cut to length. Or you could wrap the stock with paracord as someone else has done, or the wrap they put on bike handles, or intertubing...
That very well might be the reason? If that is the case, I think they would have been better off sticking with the larger tube but that's just my personal opinion.Looks like Ace decided to make the AK stock thinner since they didn't need to maintain the thick upper tube that houses the AR buffer assembly. In making the tube smaller in diameter, it looks like they decided to reinforce it with a cross-brace. The AR version doesn't likely need the cross brace since the upper tube is significantly larger in diameter.
Funny - that is *exactly* was I was thinking of doing, only in 20GA.And yeah, saiga 12 + ace skeleton = win
There is no stock on the gun when the tang is cut, so it is an unregistered SBR.You are taking it below the 26 inch mark.

Cutting off the tang results in a gun with an oal of less than 26 inches, aka a Short Barreled Rifle.
