Title: Magnets and the scorpion folding stock.
Post by: lorazepam on February 09, 2019, 11:21:49 AM: I tried to find any thread that talked about holding the stock in the folded position with magnets. Mine does not have one, and it is getting pretty floppy. Was there any consensus on which magnets to use to hold it?

Post by: Arachnid on February 09, 2019, 01:17:20 PM: Are you talking about the oem stock? Here?s what that looks like with arrows pointing to the area I had to file down to make the magnet contact the serial number inlay. If I had to replace it I?d visit my local Ace and use plastic-safe epoxy. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190209/04dcf0a43b83c81715881e11396df52d.jpg)

Post by: lorazepam on February 09, 2019, 01:34:13 PM: Mine has no magnet, and I am using a tailhook instead of the buttstock. My question is if there was a magnet that others have used with success to keep it folded. I tried a magnet from the local hardware store, but it was not strong enough.

Post by: biggerhammer on February 09, 2019, 06:57:13 PM: The factory stock comes with a magnet already in it. If your's didn't, you received a defective part.

Post by: lorazepam on February 09, 2019, 07:01:04 PM: You lose the magnet when you install the tailhook adapter.

Yes, the mag well is flared. The hook catches on the lip.
