There were numerous challenges on this project. This stock is not really ideal for RAP transplant. Notice the green magwell unit sticks out a quarter inch or so where it is flush on the original. The trigger guard is another problem as there is very little room between the trigger group and the magwell unit. Instead of the "V" bedding block I went with pillars and epoxy (JB Weld). The rear pillar needed to be a rectangle rather than a cylinder due again to the short space between trigger and magwell.
If you have ever done in-letting you know how much time it takes (LOTS!) so this project was something to do when I couldn't go to the range.
Unless you have a free take off stock, lots of bedding material, .500" length pillars, a means to fabricate a trigger guard, lots of time and patience I would not recommend this.
Function is great, possibly better than before for feeding from the mags. It now weighs more so recoil feels less. It feels a lot more stable off of sandbags.
