I didn't care for the "feel" of the stock myself. I dropped it in a black synthetic for an extreme before my 1st trip to the range. I contacted Knight and sent the stock back thinking I was going to get a laminate for a extreme (the action fits but the part that is held by the CC1 sticks out further than an extreme but you don't notice unless you really look for it) Sam called and said the laminate would not fit but a synthetic would and so I had them send me a camo synthetic that arrived yesterday.
