haha ok sorry was in a rush to go out :P
how long is the small tube that the stock pipe goes over ? i only ask as if you have a G&P crane stock and tube if that part is a standard size your stock will not fully close , its the same if you have a battery holder fitted to the stock

Re: crane stock wire issues

G&P make 2 types of body a type A and B the A is for standard stocks and the B is for battery stocks but you can just cut some off to make it a type B



thats my G&P body thats had the tube cut down for a G&P stock

here is a link to the G&P fitting guide and shows what i mean
