| Review: |
This is a very well made product, Made by a company that makes parts for real fire-arms. It serves its purpose well as a very Stable folding stock, Its ribbed on the butt-plate to prevent slips, Its made out of a military grade composite which makes it very light, it cleans up easily, and it can be folded to the side of the gun in seconds if you get in a tight spot by simply pressing down on the base of the stock. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If your looking for that perfect folding stock, here it is! Very well made, Very Functional, Looks great, and comes from a real fire-arms company, this is the best your money can buy! 10-10 |

| Review: |
I really needed a stock that i can move out of the way because of my style of play so i bought this stock and when i got it it looked really cool. i put it in and it felt unbelievably comfortable. this stock is also very durable for the materials they used (composite) i highly recommend this stock to anyone who needs a stock that you can fold away when you don't need it. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I think that this is one work of art because its looks, feel, and intimidation it offers |

| Review: |
This stock is a great upgrade for anyone who wants a scenario look on their Tippy. Most people think it is a great stock when they see it. And most reviews say the same. I see nothing bad with it at all, so I give it a 10/10. This stock is made of hard reinforced plastic and is very sturdy. When I first found out it was plastic I thought I had just picked a bad stock to buy. But when I got it I saw that this is some of the hardest plastic I have ever seen. It is also very light too, not adding any extra weight to the marker. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy it if your a scenario person. 10/10 |

| Review: |
If you are a woodsball player and don't have one of these get one NOW!!! Other stocks twice as much as this one don't even compare. It's light, sturdy, easy to install, and most of all, cheap. I got it for $37 with shipping on ebay. Its also easy to fold back and forth for storage or if you want to play speedball without taking it off. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Awesome product if you are into stocks. |

| Review: |
I tried this one and Tactical Car Stock - this is better by far. Car Stock which I tried in local store was so rough that it scratched my shoulder through my t-shirt. Tapco is none like that .It is made from very, very sturdy and smooth plastic-like material, look for no wobbling during playing.Can be also used when folded - doesn't interfere with your finger [on some photos it looks like it is, but I'm fitting my finger easy].
Easy to fold, came with second hole for ACT spring which really surprised me, since everyone was talking about drilling it.Installing is an ease - just use the longest screw [ the one from the handle] first to tighten upper hole, catch lower screw and then switch long one for proper screw.
*note for short players: I'm 6'3 , so length is perfect, but if your arms are shorter I believe it might not be comfortable - just ask someone who has it on the field to let you try it before you buy |
|
| Conclusion: |
if you want military look and sturdiness for not military price go with this one - you'll be happiest guy on the field -check my photo [M16-Marian] |

| Review: |
I recently received this before last weekends game and quickly installed it on the 98C. Cant say eneough about how impressed I am by it. Its not flimsy and doesnt fill weak compared to other stocks. My only problem with this stock at first was installing it. Its fairly easy as long as everything lines up. Once its installed make sure you test fire it with air to make sure that all internal parts are in working order. For some reason when I first installed it, my tippmann didnt fire. So after investigating I noticed that the stock had not sealed properly and was at a kind of angle and had the bolt spring somewhat off balance inside. |
|
| Conclusion: |
With great looks and a tactical purpose all combined into one, you cant go wrong with this stock. Several of my companion paintballers envy my tippy now that this has been installed. Not that I want the envy of others, I just wanted a good stock for that milsim look that I have been getting a whiff of here lately. |

| Review: |
well i got my stock about 3 months ago and i can say that i am very pleased. i love it how it can fold out of the way so i can use my sights. i use it for rushing most of the time and then i fold it for CQB (close quarter combat) or when i need the sights for a long range shot. it was easy to install and it doesnt rotate around like my old car stock.
the stock is made of some kind of hight impact plastic but that doesnt bug me none :) |
|
| Conclusion: |
Sturdy, sweet, good looking and just all around handy. If you're lookin for a sturdy tactical stock, get the pcs folding stock. Its sweet |

| Review: |
I bought this under the label "PCS Folding Stock" but the stock says TAPCO USA on it. My only problem is that I can not use it because it will not fit. The end of the 98 has two groves that rings on the stock are supposed to fit into, but it doesn't. The rings on the stock are too wide to fit in the groves. I'm sure after some work cutting and shaving I can make it fit, but if I knew I was buying a project kit I would have expected a lower price.
I was able to get it to fit enough that I could test it and found that when the stock was folded it was in the way of my hand on the front grip. If it was an inch or two longer or shorter it would be easy to work with it and the grip. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Made in the USA, always good. Sturdy and built from solid materials.
In folded state it gets in the way of the front grip.
Be aware that this stock may not be something that can be installed quickly and easily and may require modification or be returned for replacement.
It gets a 4 only because it is made in America and its not made from cheap plastic. |

| Review: |
I think this is a great product if you hate to use your c02 tank for a stock. it does not get in the way of your front grip like other reviews say. It is made of strong military grade plastic. it can be a pain to put on so keep the 98 manual and stock innstalation close. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good product |

| Review: |
Its a well made stock, that is very light, and provides a good stable platform to fire from. The stock is very light, made from some composite. The ability to fold it is priceless when you are caught in a situation that needs the stock to be folded, like packing your marker inside a bag. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would recommend to get this stock if you are looking for a good stock that won't fail you and looks pretty decent as well. |
