1913 Style Stocks in Canada

That looks like a solid piece of kit. The 1913 stock attachment method truly is "forward thinking".

It adds exacty 1.5" to the Length of Pull as compared to a direct-mount fixed-Buttstock. That's it, that's all. Adjust the length of the Buttstock down a notch and you are back in familiar territory.
 
So, I ordered the Midwest Industries "Fixed Folding Stock" with Picatinny interface approximately 2 weeks ago from Brownells. It arrived today in good order, with no CBSA interest nor interference.

It is a very compact solution for those who desire a side-folding stock and don't mind a fixed Length of Pull (LOP). The LOP feels good to me and the folding mechanism (the "Knuckle") is very low-profile. I should note that the folded stock does partially block the ejection path and may cause spin-back stoppages if fired 1980s style, folded from the hip.

You can choose left or right hand folding for the MidWest Industries extruded stock. There are 2 screws the keep the stock held to the folding mechanism, undo them and flip the stock piece.

Yes, Brownells even did a how to video. Though if it you flip it to the other side, would it be low enough to clear the charging handle? Only a potential issue when charging, since it'a non-reciprocating.
