The TS-8 completely transformed my M70 (Zastava), it’s a whole new platform with this simple upgrade!! Who doesn’t look that classic triangle stock look on an AK47?!? I love my tiger striped maple wood original furniture but feel like the blending of metal stock and wood front end is such a nice look. The TS-8 is super lightweight and has really lighted up my rig. M70’s are solid tanks of rifles as is, so any weight loss is significantly felt. Looks aside, the practicality of the folding stock is undeniably the main upgrade here. Folding up the stock for easier stowage and mobility made my full length 16” barrel rifle that much easier to pack up move with especially when suppressed. I’m running the TS-8 with an RS Regulate side rail mount and the stock folds right down on it and stays there even with some good shaking. Did that shake test right away because I was a little concerned I’d have issues with it not locking down, but nope, stays folded until I give it the *flip*. I can’t advocate any more for anyone thinking about getting one of the JMac folding stocks to just so it. It’s an upgrade that’s worth every penny. The quality is second to none, the machining and finishing are top notch and can easily be seen and felt. It’s like getting a whole new rifle and who doesn’t love that?!? All you gotta do after that is get out to the range with it and flip it and let it run!
