Quiet Stock

[southern180]

Been shooting the AA 6.5 a few times now and looking for a quiet collapsible stock,
mine is a MOE and can rattle alittle side to side . Thinking about noise when sitting in a stand and deer are close and you still need to shoulder your weapon. Any ideas??

Poor man's solution: Put some duct tape or velcro inside the stock where it slides against the extension tube.

Next up: CTR with friction clamp

I like to Cerakote all mine, which gives a little bore thickness to the tube, so there is less rattle.

There are some newer stocks that have leaf springs in them which provide constant pressure against the bottom of the extension tube to quiet everything down, and make a more secure feel for your stock weld.

Nice idea have lots of Velcro,

I just built a new lower using the mission first minimalist. There is no rattle at all, in fact its so tight it was hard to extend it until you do it 15 to 20 times. I like it, light and no rattle.

I think the engineers designing collapsible stocks have a tough time, tight enough not to rattle, fit every make of buffer tube out there, but have enough room to function in dirty conditions. I have the new bravo company gunfighter (I think it has the leaf spring), it's light and fits better than my CTR's I've had in the past. The MFT sat in my closet forever before I installed it, it's now my favorite. The rounded, curved in heel makes if more comfortable for me, also it just works better and is quiet when opening or closing. I also like the hole in the top that lines up with the numbered markings on the Spikes Tactical buffer tube.

With all that said, I'm ready to try the new Magpul MOE SL, I've read a lot of good ink about it.

On another note I really liked the MOE A2 replacement stock, but the length of pull was just too long.

I use the MAGPUL ACS on my Lite Hunter Grendel. It has zero rattle when locked down. This is a quote from their site:

"the ACS also features a supplemental friction lock system that minimizes excessive stock movement for enhanced weapon stability and accuracy*"

I have an Ergo FRS 93 on mine and there's no rattle to that. The buffer tube is a part of the stock so I think that helps. It allows them to make them to tighter specs.

No rattle on the Magpul UBR its a pretty solid collapsible stock.

[lamrith]

It is a tad on the heavy side but the Ergo F93 locks in place nice and tight. Get in your stand set length and off you go.

I have tried the MOE and ACS, both rattled when stalking. I just went with the UBR. This stock is expensive and kinda heavy, but rock solid and collapses nicely. Plus I could use my carbine springs and buffers. I put a piece of 1/8" foam on the cheek rest and a limbsaver butt pad on it.

Thirds on the Ergo F93.

Do NOT! buy the magpul version whatever you do. It uses shims to time the stock. They really screwd up the design when they licensed it.

That said I have a PRS on another lower.

Look at the Ace fixed or adjustables also.

I recently got a B5 Sopmod to replace the generic 6 position stock on one AR. Fits nice and tight on milspec buffer. F93 might be quieter, but also more $ and lot heavier.

Ace SOCOM is solid and quiet. So is the Magpul CTS.

A bit lighter than either, the Battlelink BMSMIL is very quiet, with an excellent, beard friendly, cheek weld. If the open nature of the butt stock is bothersome, there is a neat video on the use of 550 cord to close that gap.

Try replacing the spring with a flat wire spring. My next purchase to get rid of the boing...

I'll second the Mission First Battlelink stock. Nice tight fit, no rattle and it is 5oz lighter than the Magpul ACS I switched from.
