Hi, Bob. Speaking in 3rd person we are?
By the way, If anyone wants to say hello to Bob, here's how to do it correctly:
What I was actually searching for was a compilation of "Hi, Bob" quotes from the Bob Newhart show, but could not find any such animal.
Oh sorr bob I didnt really read it just say the thread and remembered people going on about stocks and the lack of

Alright--what kind of equipment and skill does it take to make a wood stock? I'm sick of these tupper-crap stocks--I'd like to give it go.
I just ordered a stock from: http://www.rifle-stocks.com/tactical.htm , And I have plans to use a modified AR-15 Mag. Catch to use... you guessed it! AR-15 magazines for my .223!
These stocks don't come with the proper floor plate or anything, but I plan on doing the work myself. So I don't plan it being an issue.
AR-15 mags won't work.

why wouldn't they? I am curious I'd hate to invest the time and money, if it won't work at all.
Let me know your plan. I am interested in this myself.
Without getting technical,.... if they worked, everybody and their brother would already be using them.

Here's a hint: When you get the magazine mounted high enough for the bolt to pick up a round you run into an interference problem between the bolt head and the magazine feed lips. All I have handy is a PMag and a Savage CRF bolt head, but it should still show you well enough why it won't work.
As you can see, the shape and size of the bolt head just doesn't lend itself to being able to pick up a round from an AR magazine.
