AICS stock weight?....first post!

[Desert Thumper]

Does anyone know the weight of the AICS 1.5 & 2.0 stocks?

Can't seem to find the stats on them. I know they are a bit heavy, but how much?

Pros & cons to the weight?

Thanks

6 lbs maybe 6.5 dont remember which. Cons; difficult to fire from the shoulder Pros; extra weight helps to dampen recoil.

Only Con is the weight if you are hunting and carrying a long way, but it's also a plus for recoil.

They are a little awkward in the forest, if you try to take one stalking, but it can be done without too much trouble.

One other thing, the SA mag is too short for some short magnums, get the long action just in case...

AI has the folder option listed as adding .44lbs not oz.

Length of pull is adjustable on these stocks using a supplied spacer system.

The standard length of pull on an AICS is between 12-16" and can be lengthened or Shortened by the use of spacers. (A set comprises of 1 x 10mm and 1 x 40mm spacer).

If the weight for hunting is a problem you have two options

a) quit whining like a pussy choir boy and go to the gym
b) get a biathlon sling

Wow, just checked back on an old post and saw this reply. Sometimes it's better to keep your mouth shut and have people wonder if your an idiot than to speak and confirm it.
