Fixed stock is too long for my wife yet perfect for me. I'd rather have a c-stock for the ability to adjust without having to buy her her own M4...

And what are the other currently available C-stock options for non-leo/non-military? ATI Raven for 300 bones... buying a Benelli C-stock for 800 bones or whatever you can find one for and still having, without a doubt, to change out two other parts (as the Benelli version now ADDS a non-compliant part - counts as two - stock AND pistol grip)... Or?

I don't necessarily disagree with you here but it is not really your responsibility as the end product consumer to back check every single supplier that any particular manufacturer uses back to raw materials. Does Kip only use titanium that was mined and refined in the US? Are you sure? Do you have documentation from each of his suppliers? Does he only use coatings that are manufactured in the US or are some of them shipped from Canada or elsewhere? Are you sure he isn't outsourcing the manufacturing to the Caymans? Did you watch him make your mag tube? Etc. How about Surefire or Freedom Fighter Tactical? (Not trying to pick on Kip or any other company or to insinuate that their products do not meet the requirements at all... particularly with Kip, I believe it is quite the opposite actually and they meet 922r requirements without question). At some point you have to trust that the manufacturer is responsible for what they advertise. Consumer protection laws are in place to protect end product purchasers from misrepresentations by US companies. 922r does not mandate that any replaced parts be stamped "made in USA". That just makes it easier to prove, should BATF agent Smith show up at your door or your side, that your weapon has met the requirements, assuming that you are the person who put the weapon together, not just the current owner. You can do that as well, perhaps not quite as easily, by providing documentation, if you are the assembler of the weapon not just the current owner, of the required parts' "made in the USA" status... receipts, manufacturer documentation, etc. If you are not the assembler of the weapon, it does not matter as it is not illegal to own... just to assemble. At least the last run were not stamped "made in USA" but based on ProMag's advertisement of it being made in the US it will not matter (being stamped "made in USA" is again not a 922r requirement). You would have made your purchase of this item based on the manufacturer's advertisement of "made in the USA" in good faith and ProMag would be on the hook for their misrepresentation should it be determined that it does not fit the requirements, not you. That's why, at least in the US, we have consumer protection laws. Hassle? Perhaps. Are you liable should someone at the ATF determine ineligibility with 922r? No. Can you be refunded your money by ProMag Industries should someone at the ATF determine ineligibility with 922r? Absolutely. Is ProMag responsible for any loss you suffer should someone at the ATF determine ineligibility with 922r? Absolutely (although this may vary from state to state most that vary do so on the side of being more harsh for the company). Is it easier to deal with potential issues if the the part is stamped "made in USA"? Absolutely. Are any of the posters wrong who have stated that the ProMag parts are made in China? Only ProMag really knows... If you are worried about it that much, and still want a c-stock, replace another 922r compliant inexpensive part... DISCLAIMER: YMMV. Check with your own attorney and the BATF yourself. This is not construed as legal advise... You are responsible for anything you do... I like Butter Pecan Ice Cream even if you don't.... etc... etc... etc...

Perhaps not a QD but something like this combination: [ATTACH=CONFIG]1927[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]1928[/ATTACH]

Gotta go with ProMag's website listing for the collapsible stock where it says "U.S.A made and sec. 922.R compliant." Print the webpage, staple it to your receipt and you should be just fine.

This same question (after doing a quick search on the forum) has been asked a few times but never answered (as far as I could find)... My first thought was a mikegli posted, a sling mount, but I have yet to see any reference to a sling mounted there instead of on the pistol grip... that hole is essentially in the same position as an AR-15 collapsible stock QD sling mount hole

Personal opinion only here but that shows not only disrespect for whoever was speaking but also for the constituents of this representative's district... perhaps being willing and able to listen to both sides of an argument before making up one's legislative mind should be a prerequisite for office...

This is a very nice gesture in uncertain times...
