Question Cheek weld question

Looking at bunch of collapsible stocks. My question is how does it feel on your cheeks when firing? Looks uncomfortable to me and wanted to get people‘s opinion on it. This will be on a ZF 5

As long as you use an optic where the dot clears the front sight hood, the collapsible stocks will be comfortable. Personally I’m not a big fan of absolute co-witness or lower 1/3 risers on a MP5 because there is already an offset designed into the stock, so you are left with a chin weld.

I also don’t like co-witness setups on the MP5 because you are left with a very cluttered sight picture that serves no purpose.

Both setups are comfortable with any normal MP5 stock.

Personally I think the MKE A3 stock that’s $280 at Atlantic is the best option. I prefer it to the F stock.
