yallknowho Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I want to buy one and shorten it by a couple inches. Has anyone attempted to do such a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duggan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 No. Not that I've ever seen. You buy a collapsible for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimslow Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I cut my M4 field stock, and filled the end with MarineTex yesterday. Going to make the final cut, and fit the recoil pad today. The same would work with the pistol grip stocks. See these threads for more info. http://arizonashooting.com/v3/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=42629 http://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=198122 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yallknowho Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 That's awesome, thanks for the links. I will try to do this when I have some free time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tren Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Also check with Quakerboy(i think) here on the board. I talked to him about doing the same with my M1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimslow Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I just finished chopping my M4 field stock, and filling the back with marine tex. It turned out pretty well, considering this was my first attempt at this. I filled the back with the marine tex, and let it sit on end untill it cured, I may have used to much epoxy, so I'm going to rout out some of the extra. I may also shorten it just a bit more. This is another option. I modified a speedfeed M1S90 stock to fit my M4. It is the most comfortable stock I have for this gun. But it's attached with a bolt and washer, so you loose the quick change feature of the M4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneakerfreak602 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Very interesting ideas. Personally I prefer the collapsible stock. Middle postion is the sweet spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yallknowho Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 I can't really run a collapsible stock legally in my communist state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duggan Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Bump, because I want to do this to an extra stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
