Dutchdiamondback Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Got mine today and it was a blast. It digests various brands of ammo (american Eagle, Minimag, CCI Blazer and CCI Standard velocity).Untill I took it over from somebody else. It dropped like 6 inches and the stock broke.In short: I'm -excusez-le-mot: that's French for "Beware: here comes some bad language...."- screwed.My rifle is no more compliant by Dutch gunlaw.This is very disappointing to say the least...

Dutchdiamondback Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Yep.I am already standing up against the wall with my arms and legs spread, while I wait for the SWAT-team to break down the door.Seriously: I will contact my PD first and the dealer second, to get this sorted out.Bottom-line: this is not the first one that breaks. All in simular incidents. My - maybe short, but justified - conclusion: ISSC is having a serious quality problem with there stocks. And although I have faith in there customer service - this is just not what I was looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 To get compliant can you get something like JB weld and glue the crap out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchdiamondback Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Maybe. But it's not up to me to perminently solve this issue. It's ISSC's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microgunner Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Dutch law forbids folding stocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchdiamondback Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Correct.Sliding stocks like on the M4 must also be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Some parts of the US also forbid folding and/or collapsing stocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoof Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 My stock broke just like that. I did glue the pocket back together, and added a strap for support. I emailed ISSC (USA) and had a new replacement stock within days. CHAZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchdiamondback Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I seriously doubt that a replacement stock will solve this problem. The mechanism is very poorly constructed and the polymer supporting it to thin. ISSC will have to come up with a much better design for it's stocks. Otherwise a replacement will only battle the symptom but not bring a cure.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchdiamondback Posted April 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 update:Replacement stock still on it's way ( i'm getting seroius doubts about ISSC Customer Service! >:( )Meanwhile my own gunsmith decided not to wait any longer and fixed it. And did a perfect job by not only fxing the stock but eliminating all play in the stock.Fired another 300 rounds with only 2 failures to fire ( possibly ammo-related ).
