You must have deep pockets.
They look cool but you could buy another shotgun for the price of one of those grips..

I thought about getting a M4 stock for my shotgun so I can use AR 15 sights and keep a proper cheek weld but decided to keep the wood stock. Thinking about selling it and getting a Kel Tec KSG when it finally comes out.

Sootch likes everything pretty much and his reviews aren't as detailed as other people's sometimes, but I'm still one of his subscribers cause he seems like a good dude and his reviews do get me to look at new products (I got drunk on M12 holsters).

And I guess you can throw up the ever convenient "to each his own" flag, but for a Mossberg especially with the safety issue, or any 12 gauge hard kicking shotgun, I don't see a practical justification for placing one on if it has moving parts and the potential to break. I mean it's a shotgun stock, how can you mess up a shotgun stock?

Too much can go wrong with that thing.

I'm not buying one right away, I'm gonna wait till all the kinks, if any, are worked out.

Its Kel tec, there will definitely be kinks, or the cop out for poor fitting with a "break-in period."

First of all, belated congrats, Excal. I think you made a good choice. I love my own Mossy (even though I also haven't shot it in the two years that I've had it).

Are they still as over-priced as they were 10 years ago? I remember trying to buy one for my airsoft MP5, before I wound up settling for a replica instead.

I haven't heard anything like that about Kel Tec ever.

I believe in the "break in period" idea, and so do a lot of gun companies for that matter. Kel-Tec products are a bit eh though, but at their price point you can't really complain. You could say the KSG is different in that it costs quite a bit, but at the same time, no other pump action shotgun on the American civilian market offers what it does.

Which is what I've been saying about the Blackhawk stock, at least next to a simple one piece stock.

I don't think the LE stock is that bad or uncomfortable (my AR still has one, which I have yet to replace), though I admit that there are superior options available. The only thing I find annoying about putting M4 stocks on guns that aren't M4s is that most people who do that are trying too hard to make their weapons look "tacticool".
