and add a scope ring sort of like this one http://www.dhgate.com/product/vecto...vetail-scope/142561824.html#s7-4-1|3855546313 that way i can still use an optic. i have some experimenting to do once the stock comes. not sure whats going to work yet.

My carbon fibre stock is sweet ther is quite a increase in felt kick with the lighter stock but you dont feal it wen hunting
Arter hunting season I will get the barrel coped and lose the scope and Arms 18 mount fore one of those J-Pont monts from M14.ca that's as light as I can get it
It's to bad Tomis retired he made one hell of light stock and it looked good too I'm lucky to have gotten one

Glad you like her man. A lot of work goes into a handcrafted custom stock. Your M14SA2 Camo Hunter is special as it was the last one off my molds to be made for sale.
She going out hunting tomorrow I hope to brake her cherry Haida Gwaii stile LOL!
got the stock yesterday and im in the slow process of prepping the rifle for the op rod guide, just need a width gauge (vernier) to measure out proper thickness. once its ready to go i will post a video of how to install it seeing as there isnt one as of yet. as well as a short review. now i just need to order the butt stock and ill post some pics!!
Finally had the chance to put some things on a scale. The scale used is a "Palmscale 8"
The original chinese black plastic stock came in at 1525g or 3lb 5.79oz
Homemade pistol grip stock is 1181g or 2lb 6.13oz
Total weight savings 1525g - 1181g = 344g or 12.13oz
Also of interest
black arrow spring guide = 54.4g or 1.92oz
Chinese spring guide 23.4g or 0.83oz
(But clearly the added accuracy is worth a couple grams!)
Oprod = 223.6g
Norinco 20rd mag = 250.9g
Trigger group = 266.7g
Piston = 47.4g
Bolt = 148.7g
Gas plug = 27.1g
Spring = 39.5g
Aluminum casm scope mount = 112.4g
