I ended up getting it on tuesday! I opened the box that it came in and this stock has weight to it, this is not a cheap stock it is very durable. When I installed it it was fairly easy to do, like other reveiws have stated, I had to carve the hole on the front of the stock out to make it a little larger for the spring to fit in. Also if you are worried about a CO2 tank not fitting below the stock, do not worry i have a Tippmann 98 Platinum and a 20 oz CO2 tank fit below the stock even when collapsed. Overall this stock is awesome. Rating: 5 / 5 I ordered this product on saturday and was told that it was to come on the following thursday. I ended up getting it on tuesday!

There is an extra hole in the 98's stock butt cap for the ACT spring mechanism and this stock didn't have it. I drilled my own hole and it works fine, but it was a little difficult getting the right spot and right depth hole. For non-ACT this should be fine.

The feel and build are awesome, and it complement the marker nicely. <br /> <br />however, it is worth mentioning that it did not fit into my tippmann without a fight. there were two problems, both of which were easy fixes. <br /> <br />the first problem was that the cocking spring did not fit into the precut hole in the stock. solution: take the largest allen key that comes with the gun, and use it as a drill bit to drill the hole larger. worked surprisingly well. <br /> <br />the second problem was that the two notches that hold the stock in the gun did not fit perfectly. solution: press the stock into the gun the way it should and rotate it, using the metal hide of the gun to rub away the extra plastic. makes for a perfect fit. <br /> <br />once i accomplished both of these, the stock functioned perfectly. <br /> <br />because the fixes were so easy, and the product is so excellent, i didnt see the need to dock it any stars.

however, it is worth mentioning that it did not fit into my tippmann without a fight. there were two problems, both of which were easy fixes.

the first problem was that the cocking spring did not fit into the precut hole in the stock. solution: take the largest allen key that comes with the gun, and use it as a drill bit to drill the hole larger. worked surprisingly well.

the second problem was that the two notches that hold the stock in the gun did not fit perfectly. solution: press the stock into the gun the way it should and rotate it, using the metal hide of the gun to rub away the extra plastic. makes for a perfect fit.

once i accomplished both of these, the stock functioned perfectly.

because the fixes were so easy, and the product is so excellent, i didnt see the need to dock it any stars.

Adds a more rifle aspect to the marker and overall sleekness. Can also add a sling if wanted. If you want something other than an out of the box 98, this isn't a bad upgrade but it is also available in a kit (sight rail and barrel and foregrip).
