    I've made a few clones of the A5.
    My verdict is that the pistol grip is a bit short, too round and conventionally made A5's are too heavy or have the weight in the wrong place. Then again I'm not a target shooter.
    We've been doing prototype work on our own tactical stock (E-Tac) for the last year trying to improve on ergonomics and recoil behaviour. Hopefully have production running before December.

    The features of a tactical stock in a lighter weight package, that sounds like a real winner to me.

    Any pics edi?
