    Thinking of swapping it out on my WK to give it a "fuller" look.

    That is the coolest stock! Light and compact, wish I could own one.

    If my memory serves me right CZ took a number of skeleton stocks and proceded to over-mold them with the "triangular" portion.
    Hence, they didn't have to design or modify existing stocks, other than to add new material.

    Pretty simple and smart fix. Just have to find an AR buffer tube wrench to remove existing WK180C stock.

    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.

    Sick. I have one in my closet right now from when I moded up my VZ.

    Id really like to know how it fires and if its solid after. Please let us know.

    Are those metric hex dumbells? Is that why they say keys? Should it be K or Kg?
    The gun has played a critical role in history. An invention which has been praised and denounced... Served hero and villain alike... And carries with it moral responsibility. To understand the gun is to better understand history.
