Picked this stock up from a member from a local forum. Took a gamble at $170, shipped. May be high for some but seemed worth it to me.
I was told it came on a Springer Scout during the mid 90's. He seemed to think it was made by Accuracy Speaks. I assume he got the rifle from them because he was also selling Accuracy Speaks rails and said he spoke with Mrs. Martin at the 95 NRA convention. The texture on it resembles the bumpy texture of the synthetics but it appears like it was textured on top of a USGI fiberglass stock. As you can see in the pic of where the grip mounts, the texture has come off and you can see a smother surface. I also looked at another USGI fiberglass stock I have, and in the mag well there are markings that match up with this one. It is very solid at the castle nut and buffer tube, and the pistol grip attaches to metal that is welded to the hex piece where the buffer tube threads into. The stocks overall length is 30" collapsed and 33 1/2" extended with the butt stock it came with. The lock up is tight as heck!
I will be replacing the butt stock and grip so over all I will probably be around $300-350. I know Choate has a done and brand new option for about the same money but man, if this is a USGI fiber and solid, that's cool with me. I like the Sage and Blackfeather but this is probably where I wanna be with this rifle.
Whatcha think?
Edit- sorry for pics being so small. Taken by phone and not smart enough to fix it
