We will be making these stocks under license. We're trying to make it a priority after our new rifles get out.
.. right after we figure out what to do with all the .300 Blackout tooling that just arrived.![]()
Oooh, I like the sound of that.

I must admit don't see the attraction--what are its benefits? Light weight? Compactness?
Cool--I like my shorty ARs as light as possible.
Was not the spex stuff coming from a guy that worked/ got fired from$ ATRS?
Maybe I have the wrong products?
But if not maybe ATRS has some?

I'm shocked nobody is losing their mind over how short the buffer tube is on this PDW... this is the beauty of the telescopic stock in its present offering - it allows the weapon to be carried at a length roughly 8" shorter than a standard AR (this is my estimation; I may be +/- a few inches on the actual stats).
This modification does not come without serious ingenuity and serious re-engineering. I was gobsmacked at how well-built it was when I shot it.

ATRS will never get a sniff at this product, that's for damn sure.
I don't want to start a pissing contest, but the Spex brand is 100% separate from ATRS.
This PDW system was designed 100% separately from anything ATRS has done, including some serious re-engineering of the AR15 internals to make it run with 100% reliability.

MP5s are definitely cool, but I would rather have the range of ammo available in 5.56...could go from barrier-blind loads to loads with less risk of overpenetration indoors very easily.
Of course if you were in a group, everyone might benefit from the greatly reduced muzzle blast of the 9mm rather than a short 5.56. But I barely have friends, let alone a tactical shooting team.
But for across-the-room distances the MP5 is sure a nice gun. I will be the first to admit I don't have a ton of time in on one but in my fairly limited experience, it's about as controllable a 9mm as I've ever shot.
Although I have not run one full-auto...I'm told the climb is pretty harsh.
Ahhhh WRONG! Time will prove this. Nuff said![]()
That particular weapon configuration is a friggin' wet dream for anyone who's a fan of an AR PDW.

that stock looks like it might interfere with the selector switch (I'm guessing it doesn't but I'd like to see the other side).
To be fair, this is not new technology or ideas...

The recoil system is unique. To my knowledge there is nothing else like it out there in the AR universe. But yes, there have been other bufferless systems before.
?
The ZM relocates the recoil spring above the barrel.Isnt this a re hashed version of the old ZM gun from years back?

JGP beat me to it, the m231 port firing weapon revisited.....
I recall seeing the buffer tubes/stocks occasionally being sold back in the 1980's
I don't want to start a pissing contest...........
