| Review: |
The folding stock is a very nice upgrade to include with your 98. It stabilizes your marker extremely well and gives you the confidence to aquire and hit your target in-close or at max distance coupled with a good barrel of course. Having it fold as well is a very unique feature compared to other competitors stocks. For rec play I'll usually fold it because of all the running, sliding and junping we do, but during jungle/or scenarios, out it comes. Another fine feature is the ability for the stock to slide to a much larger size to accomodate our more "Bunyan" sized players. Twist a knob and sliiiide. Since I've started using this upgrade, it's greatly enhanced my firing capability, whether stationary or on the move. The only downside that I can think of is the need for a mask that can conform somewhat to the stock itself. At first I used a Spectra Proshield, but it's stiff and rigid. I then changed to a Flex 7 and now I can sight normally because of the flexibility of the mask. Problem solved. I really like the folding stock and would recommend it to those military types or anyone that likes the feel of a rifle in their hands. You'll love it. |

| Conclusion: |
If you're military like myself, you can really appreciate this up. Not very expensive, looks great, folds for close quarter battle, leave it out when you're on the hunt, extends via slide for larger players. Other than the need to change your mask so you can sight better, definately a must have. |
