AR 15 Accessories

I love them, they make reloads very ergonomic and may save a little time. The down side is your shotgun does end up a little heavier, but I’ll except that for 6 extra rounds on board.

I was able to re-install them and the receiver does not appear to have any movement. I will test fire tomorrow. I would just as soon make you cry as make you laugh, both are equally entertaining to me—-me!

I am now going to have to wait for the Mossberg 500 Accessories factory pins to come in and see if that fixes it. If not back to Mossberg 500 Accessories it goes.

I had the same trouble with my mesa, the guys at Mesa have great customer service, I just think the 930 is picky about that configuration.

All in all though I do like the look of the stock itself. lonehunter 1/23/2008 11:45:01 AM Thanks Kevin, I am glad you like the X-Caliber stock and that of course is the most important thing as that is what Mesa Tactical is selling.

In a conventional stock (McM, AI, TRG, etc), I have no problem doing this even on magnum calibers because I am a rigid part of the rifle system. On the compressible stocks I, it has been the exact opposite. How is the design of your system different from the Knoxx design such that yours avoids the problems it has (as described in my other post) ? lonehunter 1/23/2008 12:30:03 PM Originally Posted By Zak-Smith: Originally Posted By lonehunter: Thanks for interest.

Hi Zak, I cant comment on Knoxx (or Blackhawk that is now) but I can say that I have actually improved my sight acquisition and staying on target with the Shot Shock and this was especially noticeable with my .50 cal BMG. It kept the rifle straight and on target instead of hopping. I guess all I can say is that I recommend that you try it for yourself and see how it affects you personally wether positively or not. Again the Shot Shock is only an optional accessory that I put on X-Caliber so it is not a permanent feature like the Knoxx/Blackhawk Axiom rifle would be. I hope that helps answer your question to the best of my ability. Semper Fi, Gregg Mute 1/23/2008 12:52:09 PM As the others above had said, on a long range precision rifle, my main concern is maintaining a consistent cheekweld, and sight picture. Less so than recoil management. If I wanted to reduce recoil, I’d just go with a brake or a suppressor (when feasible). Given the additional moving parts, what are your experiences as to these factors on a precision rifle? 007Kevin 1/24/2008 2:31:41 AM Couple questions now: 1. Could you get just the stock with it fixed in a rigid position, no recoil buffer thing? 2. Could the grip be changed to the magpull MIAD or Ergo as you can on an AR? It looks as if there is a Hogue AR grip on it but not sure. I mean I would highly consider the just the stock w/o the recoil buffer system if I can do just those two things asked above. vectorsc 1/27/2008 10:19:32 PM Not to be a jerk…but please…please dont mount a light on your PWS… It’s like giving condoms to nuns. If you need it, you are doing something wrong. RobarSR60 1/28/2008 12:58:03 AM Yup, it’s a rifle stock…I guess. Can’t say I’m impressed.

I DO like EOTechs. Kind of. But only for short range work–their speed at 25m and in makes up for the whole battery thing, to me at least
