Justinmd, our guys are already eval'in the ACS's and have nothing but good things to say about it. A big plus is that the battery compartment doesn't pull your beard like other stocks do. I'll keep you posted.

TR,
Finally got some info on stock durability, well, not technical info. The stock is "very, very strong," and should work on a shotgun. This comes from a large Marine (Magpul employee) who's been abusing it systematically for the last few months.

Right now the only stocks available use the mil-spec buffer tube, I imagine this is the Colt spec.

Justin

Got the stock, been playing around with it comparing it to a SOPMOD stock.

The Magpul is definitely heavy duty, with better storage, easier access, tighter lockup, and more conveniences.

OTOH, I do not like the lack of a horizontal slot for a sling. Maybe the singlepoint sling attachment is retrofittable by the user?

I have heard that there is a thicker, heavier duty buttpad coming out as well. That should help in the shotgun application.

Thanks to MSTN for the quick delivery!
