If it's a "standard" GI style buttstock it'll jiggle wiggle all night long.
Get a Magpul SL just make sure you have the right tube for the right size commercial vs military as mentioned above.
I'm slowly going to that style of stock for all of my AR rifles/carbines.
It automatically tensions with a pretty heavy spring.
Then of course there's the fixed choice of A1, A2 or the various Magpul MOE Fixed stocks. Probably more makers out there but I go with what I have experience with.

I've tried many different brands of AR buttstocks and they all have some amount of "wiggle" to them...except the Roger's Super Stock, and it's my preferred stock for many years now. Besides the release for adjusting the length, it also has a "cam" lever that tightens it down on the buffer tube. Far as I know no one else offers anything like it and especially at that price point.

The Butt Stock Wiggle sounds like a '90s line dancing craze.
Gee for someone who supposedly runs a gun shop I'd think you'd have something more intelligent to say.

I'm doing a little research on the actual options that has been mentioned so far. Waiting to see if anyone else has other options.

Unfortunately, we sell real guns made from trees and steel. Butt wiggle is rarely a concern.
We have a web site for our black powder stuff, if you would like to check it out. The "modern" gun store is separate, but there are pictures on Google and Facebook.

The only reason I made that comment the way I did stems back to the day you claimed to know more about cattle than I do. Sure I gave plausible answers all wrong to see if you would catch on but you never did. No need to get butthurt.

I've also got pictures of the farm. That I grew up on. That my family has owned for generations.

I don't know what I did or didn't "catch on" to, but my name was on the Alabama Cattleman's Association roster until two years ago, and that's publicly available. I've covered rodeo for three different newspapers - two of which are even still in business and have archived articles with my name on them. My parents built horse and cattle trailers for years, that was in Centre, Alabama...I'm sure there is a record of that somewhere. I've bought and sold cattle at auction, been to the slaughterhouse a few times, and done all our cattle's vaccinations. I even helped with a breach birth.

I don't know if I know more than you, but I know more than most people.

Wanna try again? Seems like you like to imply that people are liars. In my experience, that is more of a "whoever smelt it dealt it" thing.

EDIT: Oh, and the farm was incorporated and desolved, I'm happy to give you the farm name, as that's available for public record. The sticker is still on the side of my truck. I'll send you a picture of it if you want.

Huh...mouser868, I went through your old posts and can't see where we had that conversation, but I don't know what thread it was in.

I did, however, find several posts from 2011 where you mentioned that your family had not had cattle in 20 years. That's weird. We got rid of our cattle towards the end of Obama's reign and began renting the farm land to other people for their cattle until very, very, recently. It seems like, and you may not believe this, having cattle in the thirty-something years ago would make you a little less expert than someone who had cattle from the time they were born through the last decade.

In another post you say you were born in the late '60s. That means, assuming you were also born on a farm, we have approximately the same number of years of experience.

Well, would you look at that. It's me. At the farm. And there are cows. On this day we were counting newborns and my dad took this. He took some more that day, but this is the only one on the work computer. That's beautiful Lookout Mountain in the background. You can barely make out the farm house behind the trailer. This was around 2011 because we were still building the new barn. Believe it or not, this was taken in mid-winter, but the grass started turning green due to an Indian summer. The leaves are off everything except the pines.

Thus endeth the hijacking, I apologize, but I wasn't the one who called someone else a liar.
The post I was referring to is the one you started about shooting a cow in the head and it didn't die right away. After shooting a cow in the head, there's another step that should be taken to make sure that the cow doesn't suffer anymore than it has to. I learned that at a very young age

A. I wasn't the one shooting the cow
B. I was making a point about 357 SIG
C. Even the ammo manufacturer admitted that their ammo was not suitable to task.
D. The cow was dispatched, finally, with a .45 - the gun I wanted to use to begin with.
E. Total time suffering was measurable in seconds.
F. Bless your heart
G. I'll pray for you

However, since you have been wrong about all your other implications; and provably so - with EXTENSIVE EVIDENCE. Perhaps you do not know of which you speak in THAT subject either? Could it be possible that people who were there might know what they are talking about, and people who apparently like making insinuations about others don't know their posterior from a septic tank about a particular subject?

Of course, I would never insinuate that YOUR recent posts would lead anyone to believe you enjoy insulting and undermining people because you are confused about the aforementioned difference between a posterior and a septic tank.

Please provide evidence that; A. I do not have a gun shop, B. I do not have pretty extensive experience with cattle (I can also provide my old Alabama Rodeo press credentials, my tribal rodeo credentials, and my AJRA press credentials, if farm experience is not enough), C. that you were there when the cow was put down.

Alternately, please provide your website, pictures of your store, pictures of your farm, and a detailed story describing the last time you put a cow down. I'll wait.
