Soooo came across somebody making some pricey but very cool aftermarket stocks for these rifles..
Really impressed with design. They cost as much as the rifle does but still very cool.
They can use any ar-15 grip.

Here is my favorite. And the folding stock option which does look a little weak but still cool.

Cool design. FDM is definitely an expensive way to make parts. They didn't list what material the stocks are made from but I would hope it's CF renforced petg or nylon. imo it makes no sense to print parts that are already avaliable in injection molded companies like magpul. Printed will cost a lot more with less duability. Must be some printer to make parts that long.

I am not putting one more penny into my Trailscout. $75 pcp cap,$20 Foster check valve, $20 second barrel band, $50 new barrel. Plus the shipping cost, and it still shoots cross eyed. Nice and light, short, 7 shots, light trigger. Maybe my expectations were too high. Moved it to the back of safe behind the old pumper.

Throwing money at them does not make them more accurate.
Deburring Throating and polishing the chamber and recrowning the barrel and using a good heavy jsb pellet will .

3d printed part can be very strong in certain direction. But looking at the folding stock's hinge, it definitely looks like a weak spot due to the layer orientation...
