Fixing those Flimsy Stocks (Havoc Launcher)

So 4G010H3R0 and myself started talking about how to adapt an A5 back plate to a havoc launcher in order to improve on the stock design of the Havoc launcher, and after some PM's and photos, this is what we came up with. A quick summary of the details are aluminum construction, drilled and tapped for a scope mount and instead of the standard A5 push pins, we used 10-24 shoulder bolts that really hold the stock in tight (approx. 0.005" forward offset so inserting the bolts pull the stock forward and tight against the back of the launcher). So without further ado, here's some photos courtesy of 4G010H3R0. Enjoy....

As for plans for these in the future... you'll just have to wait and see. And a thanks to 4G010H3R0, it was a pleasure working with him.

If you every do a limited run on these I would be very interested.

Its actually a 1/8th double male fitting attached to a Remote asa with a 12gram drop out. Got the Idea from a UMS havoc launcher I saw.

Gonna get some more pics up here in just a bit.

I am looking in to making more with a few changes, the largest change being an AR15 buffer tube on the back instead of an A5 back plate, meaning you'll be able to choose from a wide variety of AR15 stocks. other than than, on future ones I'd like to include a machined scope mount to avoid the trouble of anyone trying to fit a scope mount to it themselves.

A picatinny rail would be nice. As for the stock, I'd rather have a standard asa machined into the block. Then you could just screw a tank right into it and use it for a stock.

That's always a possibility, what would you think about angling the ASA downward 10 or so degrees to provide mask clearance and likely better handling/aiming.

Great work O'Lane.

Switching over so you could use AR15 accessories is a great idea. Mmmm Magpul.
