BCM says it will be one of lightest and strongest stock on the market. They also say that there's more going on with the stock than it appears, probably some special feature. The pic of the black one looks better than the FDE.

Wow...looks like they took all the things that aren't worth the money and put them in one picture. Not sounding negative just personal observation.

incog = junk
knife with hole for your finger to be broken inside of = junk
weird looking plastic stock = why do we need more stocks in the industry? B5 or go home.
iphone? = if you wanted to give your info to the NSA that easily just email them a daily journal, it'll be more difficult for them than your iphone.
tourniquet = while not total junk, if you aren't buying a SOF TACTICAL TOURNIQUET you probably don't understand why you have a tourniquet.
VCOG = sucks
DBAL looking thing = day time visible laser? Or for NODS?
muzzle device = NOT for NODS or suppressors.

ok enough hate, BCM makes great stuff ;)

I've had problems with B5 stocks, one I got used, and one I bought. They fit so loose, and wobbled so much that you couldn't sneak up on a brick. I take the CTR, remove the unnecessary butt pad, and it's nice and snug, and almost as light. Had to fight with BCM on returning it, so much that I got pissed and threw it away, brand new. After telling a friend, he asked that I dig it out and give it to him. Good riddance.

I don't want this to turn into a B5 smash fest, but I've also had bad luck with their stocks. I bought a bravo model from BCM and it was loose enough to fit a commercial receiver extension. Just to be clear, B5 doesn't even make it for commercial sized extensions, yet it was that big.

My second B5 stock was the normal sopmod, and it was too tight to fit on my two BCM carbine receiver extensions. It barely fit my A5 extension, almost requiring two people to get it off.

Anyway, the new BCM stock is priced well, and I wouldn't mind giving one a try when they become available. Unless, of course, it's being manufactured for BCM by B5.

GOST
4 May 2014, 19:29
FortTom my B5 sopmods are quite the opposite, they were so tight and hard to get on the extension. The ones I have make Magpul's friction lock look loose. Also who makes that clear mag in the review? If you haven't noticed I have a clear fettish.

The LWRC compact stock is very nice, the quality of the stock is possibly the nicest I've seen. No better stock for the price. Only critique I have of this stock was that it had some play on my extension.

I've been using a MOE for quite awhile now so I'm use to some play. I don't mind it THAT much, so long as it's not excessive.

I think my next stock will be the MFT minimalist. I like the MOE and the CTR I have but want something different. From the B5's that I have messed with I plan to steer clear of them for my own personal rifles.

Peckerinak
5 May 2014, 18:58
I've had 2 different B5's and got rid of them both, the one with the battery tube, my hair would get caught in the stupid jig saw seam, the other one was just ugly and had some rattle. So I currently have a Magpul CTR, MOE and a LWRC one that a buddy gave me. Was thinking of getting one of the new MFT Minimalist stock but it was out of stock when I went to Rainier Arms to get one, but now I think I'm gonna get the new Magpul Moe slim stock when it hits the stores.

I played with one earlier this week. I'm not really sure what to think about it.

I guess I just don't see what this does that a B5 doesn't already do. I know not everyone loves the SOPMOD stock, but the idea is very similar. Personally, except for precision work, I really dig the B5 SOPMOD, especially at $65 (or less when they go on sale).

GOST
8 October 2014, 16:15
It's another option at a good price point like the Magpul SL. LWRC came out with their Compact Stock first, then came B5's Bravo Sopmod. Now both the Magpul SL and BCM Gunfighter. I personally liked the LWRC a little better than my B5, but both are great stocks though. I haven't had a chance to lay hands on either of the new stocks and neither may be better than the previous 2. More quality options isn't a bad thing, even if all 4 seem to be very similar and may not be better than the first of their style.

Choice is certainly good for the consumer, I agree. I guess I was just thinking about how the market currently is and how much this would sell with all the other options on the market. Then again, BCM seems to be really pushing their brand right now (in a good way), and if all the R&D has been done, someone has to pay for it, so I guess that's a good reason to get it out to market.

I withdraw my earlier statement after watching MrGunsGear's video. Looks very much like a competitor to the B5 Bravo. Personally, I still would want a regular SOPMOD, but that was a good review showing all the details and I can see the appeal.

When I first saw it I thought it was one of the ugliest stocks I'd ever seen. But then, that's what people thought of Glocks when they hit the market. I think the looks are growing on me already, I just need to get one in my hands to see how it handles.
