Why? I'm rather fond of them.

Preferences. 🤷‍♂️ Nice lookin' rifle, though. 👍

Gotcha. This one will be a lot less overgassed than the previous setup, so between that and the buffer spring and buffer I've selected, it should be very mild to shoot.

They don't seem to absorb recoil as well as fixed or foldable stocks from my experience. That's all.

Oh. That's comes down to the spring length and buffer weight. You can get the same effect with an A5 system using the longer A5 style extension tube, a rifle length spring and starting with an H2 buffer. Those are parts that will be going on my 308 build later this year.

Although, this also depends on the caliber. I don't like collapsible stocks on 7.62 or .308 rifles. They don't handle all that well, imo.

Well, I haven't shot a 7.62x39 AR or an AR10 style 308. I'll report how it feels in the future.

7.62x51

Oh! Sure. Lots more recoil. But, it can be tamed pretty well.

Lol. Not alot more. But yea, without any quad rail attachments and a fixed stock, there shouldn't be any significant issues.

An AR10 would feel better with all the heavy stuff, though it would be heavier, for sure.

Yes, but weight isn't an issue.
