Guys, I'm trying to find a dependable source for M14 butt plates. I would prefer a new manufacture, if possible, just to maintain consistency in availability, fit, finish, condition, etc. If anyone has a lead, please let me know

Did you ever deal with Fred's stocks?? I never got a reply from him on my order..His stocks included said butt-plates..
never dealt with him. I've never heard anything good about him either. He does have the best price for m14 butt plates, though. So did your order ever show up?Quote:

Fred is a crap shoot. One never knows how your order will be dealt with.

Good luck Sean.

*Maybe* they got their act together...
Let us know how it goes.

I'm starting to believe that Fred looks at orders as low hanging fruit. Meaning he'll get the easy ones first and if at all complicated or has to search thru the warehouse it gets put to the back of the line. Just a guess....
Congrats Sean on the quick order fill and ship from Fred's.
Rumor has it that he's looking to sell off the business. Anyone want to go halfsies? :)
Ordered on Saturday. Received at my house on Thursday. Not bad. I'm not there to open them, but will have wife crack into them this week and take some pics
