Running around in the cold for an extended amount of time, dropping it in the snow, picking it up and firing it would be far from torture, it would be closer to what I was describing as "heavy or extreme use". MAC's video shows no "TORTURE" of anything as far as I'm concerned, let alone heavy and extreme use that you've described.Īre you two being serious? It wasnt being tortured? What exactly would you consider leaving a gun laying around in ice and spraying it with water in freezing temperatures? Is that NORMAL use? Thats hardly a realistic scenario by any stretch of the imagination. So, if you threw it on your "SHTF" gun or whatever, youre kind of stupid anyway.Ĭould you please point to the specific video that you're referring to please? We're talking about MAC's video, and his Zhukov stock that broke from one foot off the ground when he tapped it. That being said, the thing *is* all plastic. A gun being TORTURED and breaking under that torture. Had that happened to someone treating their rifle with half a sense of respect JUST because it was cold outside, then it would be a much different story.Īgain, not trying to hang off Magpuls nuts or anything, Im just saying. your stock breaking off is clearly the least of your worries.

Also, I just decided that I wanted to stick with the original look.Īnyway, my point is that if you subject your rifle to what MAC did for that test.

Factor in other things like the fact that I just dont think ANY folding stock is as reliable as a fixed stock, no matter how its made, and the fact that it is all plastic and it just didnt seem appealing to me in the end. The biggest one being that it folds to the right.

I bought one and I decided I didnt want to use it before I even finished installing it for various reasons. Im not trying to defend Magpul or the Zhukov stock or anything either. How do people not understand that there is a HUGE difference between a gun being reliable under heavy, or even extreme use, and a gun being TORTURED to test its limitation?
