stinger stock question

[Karljohnmason]

Hi all
I'm wanting to put a stinger stock on my AR57.
The AR57 is rear wired, lipo in the stock tube.
Am i going to have to rewire the whole thing?
Or is there room for the lipo?

What's a stinger stock? I'm thinking it's like a HK416C stock? I've seen this before and I think yes some LiPos will work.

this is the stock. Ive been told it cant be done with out rewiring the gun. ive seen it done with a veitnam mag in the mag ewll, but i was hoping to avoid doing that :/

Yeah looks like a rewire job- the magwell as you say would be the easiest place- people use empty mags on the real thing to catch the shells so it won't be too unrealistic if you go that way

[Karljohnmason]

yeah true one of the things i like about the ar57 is the empty mag well

You could always build a little box that the lipo fits in and blocks the bottom of the magwell

[Karljohnmason]

that was a thought i had
got to start measuring things if I want to pull it off

I have a tiny Turnigy Nano Tech LiPo battery (25-50C 950mAh 3S 11.1V / 71.5mm x 25mm x 20.5mm) for sale in the Classifieds (about 2 weeks old, never used). It may well fit inside that stock, or diagonally into a magwell. I looked at those tanker stocks when i was considering what to put on my Franken-AK build but I couldn't find any pics which showed the rear of the compartment unscrewed, but it does look as if a threaded cap is meant to come off. Naturally you would have to drill a hole to fit the cable through if there isn't one next to that long bolt. Also I have no idea if the AR57 gb can take 11.1V without upgrade...

I have the 416c style stock, i will open it up and upload some pictures of the slace

[Karljohnmason]

cheers guys
all the help i can get on a project is much appreciated
it is looking like i might have to rewire it so the battery sits in the mag well if i want to change the stock

Seen one or too of the AR-57 with the G36 scope rails on, looks ace! Do you still have yours?
