858 Folding Stock Question

[Pimpley Bum]

For dudes who have the 858 with the folding stock; how sturdy is it and is there any wiggle when you have it to your shoulder?

 

[Mr Freeze]

Mine locks solid. No wiggle at all.

If you get a well worn one some of them could wiggle a bit. I have two new ones and they have a little nub that I had to file a bit to allow them to lock open and they are solid. The nub is there for that purpose, if you got a worn one you could hit it with a wire feed welder and build it back up then file it to your liking.

All the ones I have seen are real solid my only complaint is that they need a bit of a cheek piece but I have seen much worse.

i solved the cheek weld problem with this.

and the folder still closes nicely.

Mine is rock solid and no problems with cheek weld.
