I wanted to take a moment to look at the slight differences between the Kalashnikov Concern’s QD Standard and the US QD Standard. As you can see, Kalashnikov Concern’s lock extension is slightly longer, and the loop is significantly wider to accommodate legacy canvas slings. The lock points are slightly lower on the KC unit as well. It will be interesting to see if a US manufacturer is able to copy this design for those of us running KC buttstocks. Time will tell…
