Folding stock/Braces
« on: February 02, 2020, 11:42:09 PM »
New to Scorpions. Most of the folding stocks I see folks using on their gun fold to the right side of the gun. Is there a reason that most go to the right side? As a right hand shooter I much prefer the folder fold to the left side of the gun. Ergonomic. My right had will be on fire control leaving my left hand to easily unfold the folding stock. If to was folded to the left then I would have to reach cross the gun to unfold it. Is there another reason folks are choosing folding to the right side of gun?

Thanks in advanced.

I don't think people really choose which side it folds on I just think all of them fold on the right side probably so it does not interfere with charging the weapon. You can also still deploy these with your left hand!

Most right side (ejection side) stocks/braces are designed to clear the charging handle. I think right handed works best for right handed people. With the weapon slung in a way that the weapon is held at mid to low chest level against the body the stock can be  quickly deployed close to the body. If it were a left handed stock the weapon would have to be moved out away from the body so the stock could be folded out. Not a big difference, and really all on how you train with you weapon and develop muscle memory.

Sig stocks fold to the left which is my preference as well. JMac adapter, Sig stock, and good to go.

Lage makes an adapter and you can choose either left or right.
