I agree that the benefits of a shotgun with a. regular stock don't translate to a magazine fed rifle.
My point was to illustrate that it's not a big deal and can be adapted to.
It will result in more muzzle climb. In case others don't understand why, I'll explain. An AR stock puts the bore down low, almost even with your shoulder, so the recoil tends to be straight back. A traditional stock brings the bore up to meet your eye. So the bore Line is above your shoulder and recoil tends to make the muzzle rise.
You can fix this with a muzzle brake. I have a brake that on an AR actually depresses the muzzle with every shot. So it would probably work well on this. But a brake comes with its own set of issues. Either way, to build this as a zero feature rifle, you would need to permanently affix a brake. But super effective brakes tend to be louder and more concussive.
Yes, adjusting LOP on the fly wouldn't be possible with existing stock choices.
But I think you are missing my point. Which is not that this is just as good as a traditional AR. But that if you live in a ban state where your choice is a fixed mag or bolt action traditional AR, or this. This is a far better choice in almost all use cases.
