    It appears Canadians and Czechs can cross-breed.... the Vz180C

    When I first saw the 180C, I thought the AR15 stock on it was a travesty.... the AR NEEDS the buffer tube as a result of its design, but putting that stock onto a rifle that could potentially have a folding (or literally ANY other kind of) stock seems silly.

    I had thought the ACR stock or ACE ARFX would be decent, but due to the length of the receiver behind the pistol grip, both are longer than I prefer.

    A short Galil stock or Vz stock were the other option I had considered. With that in mind, I pulled the stock, and created this.... thing

    BEHOLD, the hybrid Vz180C.... Vz stock and irons, with a Canadian rifle!








    This stock fit so easily that I'd almost have thought Wolverine designed the rifle with it in mind. The indexing tab at the top of the stock needed to be filed slightly. Add a washer, use the factory WK180 bolt, and done. Cheekweld with the Scorpion iron sights is almost perfect.

    Irons are off a Scorpion. Not sure if they can be purchased directly anywhere. What I love about this is that it is a cheap and functional upgrade... I really think this is what Wolverine should have done in the first place. They could have bought a ton of surplus Vz folders, and viola!

    Tried shooting it yet? Wonder how much it will bounce around.

    I really like that.
    Doesn't matter, anymore. We're only good for filling sandbags for floods and saving people during winter storms. Other-wise we're kicking posts and crazies who are over worked, over taxed, underpaid and never truly appreciated.

    Not yet, but given how well that stock works on a 7.62x39 gun (even given where the bore axis is in relation to the stock), I think it'll be ok... probably more muzzle jump than with the more in-line AR stock, but we shall see.
