An often-misunderstood phrase on body position is cheek weld.
All too often, I see optics that are too high and non-adjustable stocks that are too low.
Firstly, they can be too wobbly.
Some stocks eliminate this by making the stock non-adjustable and creating a fixed stock from castle nut to buttpad.
This is acceptable, but it doesnt allow as much fine adjustment in the length of pull.
Another issue I see is the lack of an adjustable cheek comb.
B5 Systems has tackled all these issues with their Collapsible Precision Stock.
These little tensioners help keep the stock steady on your buffer tube.
B5 has also included an adjustable cheek comb to get you to that perfect height on your AR.
It easily adjusts with a dial located just under the comb.
Both of these allow the shooter a very comfortable way to interface with their rifle.
My first time behind the rifle with the B5 Stock was a bit of a surprise.
I really didnt expect as much as I ended up gaining from this set-up.
The stock was sturdy and felt very solid without adding too much bulk or weight to the rifle.
For those using traditional slings, B5 also added hardpoint attachments on either side of the stock.
For attaching monopods or other accessories, B5 added twoM-Lok slotsat the 6 oclock position of the stock.
This is a very well thought out design with the end user clearly in mind.
Whatever your theme, I think one of these combos will be very attractive to you.
Move on over, FDE.
The length of pull adjusts from 8.5 to 9.2.
The comb adjustment moves from 4.35 to 4.78 and stock weighs in at 20.65 oz.
This B5 Collapsible Precision Stock can be found for around $230 at most online retailers.
If you have an AR set up for distance, check out this B5 Precision stock option.
You wont be let down.
