    Opinions on stock extension?

    Guys -

    With good weather here in VA, I actually had a chance to go out and drill with my PS90. I'm not sure if it's an equipment issue or a technique issue (the PS90 is the first bullpup I've worked with), but I just don't seem to be as comfortable as I'd like with the fit of the weapon. Don't get me wrong, I love how it shoots and am still impressed that we could consistenetly hit 3" groups at 50 yards, so she's a keeper!!!

    I am looking at possibly adding the stock extension thinking that it's my size that's the problem (6'4", 260 lbs) and that my technique is not adapting to it properly, leaving me feeling too cramped with the weapon and fatiguing too soon. I'm curious to hear the opinions of some of the more experienced folks out there: good experiences using the stock mod, and/or is there change in technique that can help?

    Thanks in advance!

    I'm 6'3" and 250. The factory stock works great, it just takes a little practice to get used to it.

    6'1", 290, no problems with the factory stock. I have great eye relief to the factory sight.

    JHS and Jasestrong -

    Thanks for the feedback, that's very encouraging! As I suspected, it's probably just me (gorilla head and awkward elbows).

    M1P90 - that is a slick addition! I'm not sure if the orignial poster found one or not, but I thought the design was impressive.

    I'll run more rounds through before I decide, but thanks again for the replies!!!!

    By chance do you set crouched over your PS90 calling it your precious ?
