What does everyone think of this rifle?
BearBio said:Just ordered one but all they had was the 16.1" barrel. Will be here Wed.
I don't care for the folding stock=is there any add-on fixed stocks available? (I'm old school and learned on a G.I. M-16)?

You mean the collapsing stock akin to the M-4? Should be a generic AR-15 style stock, any compatible style should work (including A1/A2 fixed stock, if that's your preference).
Magpul has a collapsing adjustable stock with a lock on it as well. Would save you the trouble of swapping the buffer tube to something compatible with a fixed stock.

The MPR is kind of an enhanced version of the 16" version. Difference are 18" bbl, magpul furnture, free float handguard w/mlok slots, special lighter trigger.
