Hmm not what I was expecting. Was hoping for an ACR stock adaptor or a skeleton stock...

I like it! Adjustable for length and comb height - looks good!


However, it would look even better if it said 7.62x39 or 6.5 Grendel on the barrel, just saying......
 
I like it, little different than the original. How would the price point change from the previous generation if this goes forward?
 
Yes, adjustable for height of comb, awesome! Usually you have to pay big $$ for that in an aftermarket stock. Will this be sold aftermarket or only on new rifles?

It looks just fine too, although function and ergonomics are all that really matter to me.
 
Looks a little too long and chunky for me. Don't hate it, but not my favourite.

^I thought this was an FX-9 thread so I clicked on it. (you see what you want to see I guess :) ) But, having looked at the photos...I'm inclined to agree with ^this sentiment. If I were shooting it prone off a bipod, it's the kind of stock I might like, and the added weight would be welcome. As an offhand shooter...I think something much lighter, more skeletal would suit the gun a bit better. I once owned an XCR-L with a nice/minimal folding stock that had a small amount of adjustment built-in. It was the second generation, not the tubular looking one.

I like the look of minimal folding stocks, like the VZ 58...but realize that might be TOO extreme in the other direction. Even something like this; https://www.cncwarrior.com/VZ58-Sidefolder-Assembly-p/27983.htm
 
To be honest, if you could keep the same stylistic elements from the Kiwi stock (obviously less the connection to the grip) and make it folding, that might work better with the overall look of the gun. That being said, the functionality of the proposal is excellent.
 
Why hasn’t anyone propose to have it adaptable to the ACR folding stock. As a business standpoint, not only could you attract those that want an ACR but couldn’t afford it, you can also reverse sell the stock to those who has ACRs.
