Good service. How do you like that stock in terms of grip and handling? I'm thinking of getting an AR rifle with the same stock, I am in California. Thanks.
I bought a Thordsen stock for my AK and the first time I called to ask questions they answered the phone in the first couple of rings. The guy was very knowledgeable on which stock would fit my rifle. I was impressed so I bought a stock from them.
I love a company that stands behind it's products! I'm glad they took care of you 🙂 I live in South Carolina and as such I am not subjected to the bullshit anti 2nd Amendment nonsense (at least not right now anyway) that the Dear Leaders of the People's Republic of California makes you poor guys adhere to. Having said that, I have three AR's ..two in 5.56 and one in 300 Black out. One of my 5.56 AR's is a carbine and has a collapsible stock currently on it, the other two have standard fixed stocks as I prefer them. I am going to order one of these Thordsen stocks and put it on the carbine not because I have to by law but because I actually think the stock is pretty cool looking! The stock looks like it would be a pretty comfortable stock to hunt with as well. The fact that they are so customer oriented seals the deal for me. New sub 🙂
I just got my FRS-15 Gen III Stock yesterday. Got up this morning like a kid all giddy on Christmas day to install on my rifle. It's actually very nice. I got this over the other featurless options because I can still wrap my thumb around the grip, and I wouldn't have to further butcher the rifle by adding a maglock that only disengages the magazine when the action is opened up.
A company run by good engineers wants to know how you broke their product so that the next generation does not break in the same way. 1 guy drops from 4 feet, another from 10 feet? Someone who cares will say, "how can we make it reliably survive 15 feet?" Is it your fault the product broke? Absolutely. But the best engineers are perfectionists and will want to push the boundaries so that customers will be pleasantly surprised when despite repeatedly dropping the product, it stands up. I've dropped my phone from shoulder height onto cement many times, and have yet to crack the screen. This is the kind of design we need more of in the world.
Great vid; just have a question in regards to your sling though. How did you attach it to that part of the stock? I just bought a sling and can’t figure it out. Do I need to purchase an additional piece?
hey its give an take at least we get rid of the bullet button i have this stock and it works good as long as u have an ambi safety otherwise your grip has to change. ill be getting the gen 3 on my other American Rifle 15.
I enjoyed being on Rich's chat with you tonight. I'm not in a commie state so I don't need that stock but I do like the looks of it. Maybe because It looks more like a hunting rifle. I subbed. Man you've got the second best beard on youtube. LOL.
that is a really good company to do that in such a short amount of time it's good to no now I might think about getting one after all lol great video and god bless you

Thanks from New York! This was already on my radar but now it's a definite go!
How did you break it?

honestly i actually prefer the thordsen on my spr vs the milspec grip. on my carbine i still think the pistol grip is better though
That is really good to know
What the hell has ca done to our ar's

How is the reliability of the rifle?

Call me weird but am I the only one who likes th e thordsen better than the pistol grip? I dont mind the economics and i think it looks sick
There is NO way i could live in commiefornia.
Thanks brother, that's the last I needed to hear, I'm using this product for all my AR's
Thanks. I think i'll get one soon.
If I keep my AR in pieces, is that considered featureless?
That's the way I want to go with my ARs
SURE DENNIS, BUT YOU'RE A MOVIE STAR!
after adding this stock, i stopped calling my rifle an ar 15. it's clearly something different now
Looks good for what it is .
hey its give an take at least we get rid of the bullet button i have this stock and it works good as long as u have an ambi safety otherwise your grip has to change. ill be getting the gen 3 on my other American Rifle 15.
They are a great company. Great customer service for sure. Great products.
Best option on the market…here is my video on the installation –> https://youtu.be/_xAnBwdQ7PU
is that considered a featureless cali compliant AR with a standard mag release?? I'm in cali and that looks pretty sharp.
You have to deal with this crap stock when you are LE ? In NY if you have LE status none of the safe act si lines applies to you.

Good customer service, I hate that You have to put these on Your ARs. Actually it does look kind of cool though. Good Video
Nice, good CS!
You probably spoke to Alan Thordsen the owner of Thordsen Customs.
hey Dennis lets see the install if you get a chance
that is a really good company to do that in such a short amount of time it's good to no now I might think about getting one after all lol great video and god bless you
