    So the time has come to SBR the APC9SD and I am pondering stocks. Well, not really. What I want to accomplish is to use a Gen 1 style butt plate. Taller with the mounting ears more centered in the plate. At some point B&T revised the plate to a much smaller and lower slung version but didn't update any pictures on pretty much any website you can find so it's a crap shoot whether you will get the Gen 1 or a newer version that doesn't really vibe with the gun. At this point an idea entered my head. What about an APC556/300/308 butt plate? They still rock the Gen 1 look and are actually available (and that is all I need. Already have the tele and buffer and it came with the rifle length stops). Seems workable but will it fit on the rails width wise? My heart says yes but I figured if someone had emperical data that would be awesome! What say y'all? Worst case the Haga Defense plate is a pretty decent clone but I would rather sstay B&T through and through. Petty, I know. :LOL:
