Galil Ace stock options?

[Inkognito]

Are there any options for alternate folding stocks for the Galil Ace yet? I own an original IMI Galil and I think an Ace would be a cool counterpart to add to that but that atrocious AR style rear stock....WTF. I have seen some pictures of Ace's with the traditional Galil folding stock but I don't know how much work is involved with that. And, the Ace is a more modern design which probably should have a more modern (non AR look-alike) stock. I would love to see something like a Zhukov or something similar to the Swiss folding stocks found on the 55x rifles. Anything like that out there yet? I have not been able to find anything like that.

Aren't the old and new Galil stocks compatible? I remember seeing Indumil showing older Galils fitted with the new ACE stock; didn't look modified at all.

All you have to do for the original style stock is replace the stock at the hinge. http://www.uzitalk.com/forums/showthread.php?86286-Galil-ace-stock

There is also an adapter out there to enable the use of or AR style stocks. Personally I think the new Ace stock is good to go for the weapon it was designed for. The tube is a narrower profile than an AR tube so it won't stick out as far when folded. Love my ACE's.
YMMV :cool

Can a MAR stock be used for a similar modification?

Does not look like it, without changing the hinge

Would this stock as it stands mount to a standard galil hinge as pictured above?
