Choate M4 stock, milspec version. Definately heavier than a SOPMOD, and heavier than my EMOD. Cheekweld is comfortable, and seamless, unlike the EMOD. I think the squeeze lever is plastic coated metal, and the inside of the battery storage tubes are threaded metal, and the caps have o-rings. The top of the stick is shaved down so that the charging handle has lots of clearance. This one is mounted on a LWRC receiver extension (1.1475"), and it has the same amount of movement as the EMOD did. There is a QD swivel mount which can me mounted on either side of the stock. Choate claims that this stock can support the weight of one truck tire parked on it. I would say the material is more of a plastic/fiberglass combo- it has that extra hard feeling.

When originally looking for a stock (I went with the Magpul ACS) I looked at this on the web and thought it was a lower quality option. Now that I see close up pics, and read your description, clearly I was wrong. Looks good, and I hope it serves your needs well.

That looks very nice. Hope its higher quality than that ultimate sniper stock from Choate.

What pistol grip is that?

Looks like an HK416 (http://www.hkparts.net/shop/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=33&idcategory=14) pistol grip.

I really like the looks of those battery storage covers.

I ditched my ACS for a standard M4 stock, until I can find something I like.

Right now I'm tossed up between waiting for Vltor to release the i-mod, or the SOPMOD stock, but this is definitely interesting.
