    CSP is what you make it.

    A picture of your gun is worth 1,000 words. A crappy picture is only worth 100.

    I think Sarco used to sell them. Nothing wrong for shooting, but the Scant, in my opinion, deserves its' nickname of "warthog".

    Rick, you left off the A10 in front of "warthog". I as you know, consider that a compliment of the scant.

    Like the A-10, very functional but far from pretty!!

    (P.S. The A-10 is one of my favorite "modern" aircraft)

    A10, the modern day version of my favorite, the P-47 Thunderbolt.

    If the P-47 is the finger groove stock,then I don't have a problem with the scant stock Corsair,or the P38.They are what they are!

    While I would agree that the scant stock is not very attractive, it is way more desirable as a shooter than is the older straight stock.
