[QUOTE="teesquare, post: 1731880, member: 56740"] Yep...In a recent conversation with Melvin Forbes ( New Ultra Light Arms ) he pointed out how and why he builds his own carbon fiber/Kevlar stocks for his rifles. The stock weighs 16 oz. But you can drive a truck over it ( has been done...).His extensive experience and research utilizing aerospace engineering data has helped him build a stock that is not only light and strong, but does a better job of recoil dispersion. Thus, the feeling of reduced recoil as opposed tot eh typical plastic factory stock. Accuracy? Ask anyone that owns a Melvin Forbes built rifle...and search the internet. Nothing but positive - even rave reviews. So, he believes in the importance of the best stock he can build. [/QUOTE]
