The G&G C7A1 should not have the "M4 stock" (four-position law enforcement stock) because the RS C7A1 never came with a retractable stock. The difference between the C7 and C7A1 was the introduction of the flat top - the C7A2 was the introduction of the retractable stock and the ambidexterous fire selector. Why there is a Triad on there (for the sake of it being a C7A1) is beyond me.
All that said, I'm glad to see someone taking an interest in making a Canadian weapon. All too long now if someone wanted a "Canadian" weapon (C7 or C8 and all their variants) they had to buy the American version (M16 or M4) and modify it appropriately. It's great to see a C7A1 being produced right from factory. Aside from the Triad being available separately (as has been confirmed that it will be), I'm curious if the C79 Elcan will be an accurate representation....besides the screws/wingnuts.
While I'm happy that a C7A1 will be available, I personally will not likely be purchasing one simply because it is an AEG. I got bit by the GBBR bug and I prefer to use them. But if the parts (Triad, Elcan, etc.) are of good quality, I would consider purchasing them to assist with any C7A2 or C8A2/A3 GBBR builds.
