There is nothing like a plastic AR.

 

[Walkalong]

Looks nice. I like it. Don't know if I would want to lug it in the jungle, but I will probably never have to either.

 

[earlthegoat2]

Only because its different can I call that AR classy. Looking at AR picture threads for too long makes me go color blind.

 

[JDGray]

Nice AK15 Is that photoshopped, or someones real rifle?

 

[cyclopsshooter]

Demo model, i put the web link on page one of the thread

 

[Wolfsburg]

Gorgeous

 

[cbrgator]

Solely my opinion and to each their own, but... I think it's hideous.

 

[Quoheleth]

I like the wood.
The plad and goofy swirly ones can go bye-bye and not show up at my house.

Out of curiosity, how does the wood change the balance of the AR? That's a LOT of wood at the rear end of the gun...

Q

 

[JDGray]

There already growing on me Don't know how I missed the link, but I wouldn't mind just the dark walnut looking stock, with the rest of it traditional tacticool

 

[Brian Williams]

The Gray/Black Laminated set look nice but at $189, way toooo much.

 

[General Geoff]

It's different; I don't think it particularly looks better or worse than black plastic. I don't like the short barrel guard, though. Having the front sight post only halfway down the barrel looks really dumb, IMO.

 

[TimboKhan]

Sigh... I hate to admit this, but I like the walnut. I think it looks cool and different without being gaudy, though it walks a pretty thin line there.

Of course, I also happen agree with Brian: There ain't no way I am spending $189.00 on that stock. Ever. For $189.00 I can buy half a case of .223, and in the long run I would much rather be able to shoot my AR than just look at it.

 

[hmphargh]

I think you're nuts, but it is also a very unique look. I don't have any ARs, but I think I would put the wood furniture on one AR if I had multiple.

 

[JDGray]

That wood stock would definately dampen the AR Sproing I kinda like my ARs to sproing

 

[jaholder1971]

I swear I've seen pictures of early M16 models that sported wood furniture in the hands of Special Forces troops. I saw it in a "First Book of" series of books that dates back probably the early 60's. It was on the front cover.

 

[Maverick223]

Man the poll is neck & neck...don't succumb to the tacky-cool.

 

[travellingJeff]

Could be worse ;-)

 

[Rollis R. Karvellis]

I like the throw back look, like the older FN-FAL's

 

[dispatch55126]

I think it would make a great presentation rifle. Something you can emboss, present to someone than have them display it on the wall. Don't see any practical use for it.

 

[Maverick223]

Don't see any practical use for it.

I do...it would probably be good for...I don't know...ummm, shooting. :banghead:

 

[Sunray]

That's pretty. Nothing like a nice piece of wood to make any rifle look better.
travellingJeff, have you seen the pink stocks available for AR's?

 

[sarduy]

it's different!
