Can anyone tell me the weight of the basic weighs? I could not find it on there website. I’m looking for something light that I can use off the bench in alternate positions and offhand.

I went on line and ordered directly from JAE. Just go to JAE stocks and give them a call or email. Took about 3 or 4 months to get mine as I remember it.
Good Luck

If I were to purchase a synthetic stock, this would be it. I’d buy the OD green with black accessories. However, $900 to $1200 with all the goodies is quite a financial commitment considering the rifle with a great scope is already $3000 to $3500 range. I just bought a $265.00 premium black walnut stock with hardware from Springfield Armory for my SOCOM 16. It’s gorgeous! It was already stained dark, but I finished it with WATCO TEAK OIL and added double coats over a two day period. The wood really sucked it up and left a nice flat, non-slick finish and brought out the wood grain even better. You can use tung oil or boiled linseed oil as well. I exclusively use teak oil because this is used on the wooden decks of ships where they get walked on, sea sprayed, and sun drenched all day. You would think that humidity and day in and day out rain would affect the wood and ultimately your aiming point, but this is not true, as long as you saturate the stock with one of these oils every year. In Vietnam, it was SOP for soldiers and Marines to treat their M-14 stocks with boiled linseed oil every three months. I do mine every six months.

The JAE stock really brings the M1A into the 21 century. I’m a traditionalist though. There’s something special about having the smell of wood mated with cold iron that gives the rifle character. But JAE stock has character also, so it’s just a matter of taste. Either one is a winner.

I purchased my JAE stock for a Springfield M1A Loaded SS medium wt. match barrel. It shot just a little over MOA out of the box. Once I installed the stock that shrunk to about .75 and occassionally I could get 3 rds just over .5
Outstanding comfort and versatility. I am not a great shooter. For casual shooting or defense work this M1A is my rifle having advantage over my Rem 700 PSS due to capacity. It shoots 150gr. or 168s well. This stock is a deal; great quality. Get one and your M1A will be the only rifle you’ll need.
