Frankly, I never knew it existed.
And bluntly... it looks clunky.
Apparently it has a shorter LOP then a PRS though.

I found this picture of it on FB. Kinda chunky looking yeah, but maybe not more so than a LuthAR. Weight was listed as 2,000g though, I hope that's the package weight because that's 4.4 lbs in American.

"Weight was listed as 2,000g though, I hope that's the package weight because that's 4.4 lbs in American."

I saw that also and at first glance I was, no way it's too heavy, however on the pdf for the stock, it is listed as 550g which is 19.40 oz.

Not sure which is right. I do like that the cheek piece sit flush with the top of the stock. It's similar to the Auth-AR MBA stock.

I've seen the price of around $235 for the IMI stock and around $140 for the Auth-AR stock.

550g/19.4oz seems more reasonable for a stock like that. While I was looking for some more information on this stock I found this one from FAB Defense, another Israel-based company. It's a little more expensive and it weighs about 20 oz.

For anyone thinking of ordering either of the mentioned stocks... DO NOT order from The Mako Group, their webpage is corrupted, and your CC info WILL be stolen.

I have one. My only gripe is the cheekpiece is too close to the butt for it to be usable for anything other than standing or upright kneeling. I had planned on using it with a side charger upper but mocked it up prior and found that for prone especially, my cheek is forward of the leading edge of the cheekpiece. Even with the butt plate extended all the way. For my body type anyways.

I bought this from Dvor for $100 a little while while back. It's pops up for sale on there every once and a while. It wobbles on the buffer tube no matter how tight you make the clamp. When you make it too tight, you cant collapse it which isn't that big of a deal since the LOP can be adjusted 2 ways. The rest of it is nice though.

I have seen one other review that said the same thing about the cheek piece.
