Your full stock doesn't fit the battery you need? Then I'm not too sure the crane stock will help you much then. Most find the battery bags unsightly but personally I don't touch the insides of a mechbox if I can help it so I do do much upgrading at all. Although it does look kinda wierd having what looks kinda like a large rosin bag on your gun stock.

well then if you want the collapsable stock so bad then maybe you should look into some sling mounted battery bags that they have here and there. They can usually hold a decent sized battery ( I use one just as a backup battery storage.) Although you're going to have to get extension cables for it but it might be an option so you don't have much hanging off the gun. Or if you decide to rewire to the front. Neo can enlighten you on Lithium batteries. Even the small ones are pretty freakin strong in on sustained draw.

There are peq boxes which can hold large custom batteries that fit onto a ris but I believe they do require a minor bit of wirework. If you mean in a ris handguard(aka TM S System) then most small batteries should work in the compartment and the lithium cells will actually fit better as they are slimmer and smaller in size.

so i might as well re wire my gun to the front and stick lithium batteries in my RIS

Like I said though, PM Neo about the question and clearly as possible and he can probably tell you ALL you need to know. Be warned though. Lithium battiers are more expensive by quite a bit and the chargers are pretty pricey too.

The crane stocks are nice but be a bit careful with it. Just remember when you are running around that when you hit that stock or beat it up your also giving your battery an ass whoopin to boot.

ya but its really a toss up between a crane stock or a collapsable with battery bag. Now the collapsable and battery bag im tradeing in for my Full stock so thats a no money spender deal, but the Crane Stock i need to buy with battery for 80$ so what do u suggest?

Since it would appear you don't give a rat's behind about appearance then I'd say battery bag and col. stock. Especially since it's an even trade. Although i kinda thought the full stock was worth more than a collapseable stock and battery bag combined but then again I don't do much stock shopping at all since the only stock upgrade/change of any kind I have is the hurricane butt pad for my p90. I got an M4 and I keep my guns stock internally for the most part unless something breaks so I don't really need the larger battery.
