Re: Interesting AR15 Accessory

The Annoyed Man wrote:For me, the bottom line with this thing is concealment. I drive a mid-sized SUV (Pathfinder) and I can fit a carbine crosswise either in the back seat or behind the seats, but the case is pretty obvious as to what it is to anyone who cares to look in the windows. If I can make a carbine fit into something less conspicuous—like 74novaman's tennis racket case—then it A) takes up much less space, and B) is less of a temptation to thieves. That is my primary concern with having a carbine in my car. And my wife drives a Camry. So even though she has a trunk, it is a small trunk, and there needs to be room for other things in there. Plus, if you have time to get the rifle out of the trunk, you have time to deploy a stock.

If I need a gun chop chop, I'm carrying a pistol after all which I can deploy faster than even a folded AK in a bag. I'm not negating the advantages of having that capability that a folded AK permits over a folded AR, but this device costs $180, and a folding AK is going to cost upward of $500-$600........for one. I need two (one for me, one for my wife). I actually want to buy a couple of AKs with folding stocks some day, but other things keep coming up (new glasses, new bed, trip to Florida, medical bills, etc.). So for me, for now, this is an expedient solution to the problem. Since my wife and I already own two AR carbines, I'm willing to gamble that in any scenario where either of us might need a long gun, if we have the 5-10 seconds it is going to take to get it out of the bag, then an extra second to deploy the stock is not going to matter much.

At least that is my thinking.......flawed though it may be (just ask my wife)! :mrgreen:
Chris, when you get it, I've got to see it! I'll be saving my pennies for this part.
