On short barrela I do not find stocks to be of any value for quick tactical shooting. A sling put in tension while pushing the gun forward is much more stable for that purpose. A stock is good for scopes but scopes are not that useful on short barrel short range guns.

Agreed. The PLR-16 has no buffer tube for such attachments. I use a single-point sling on it for the reason you mention, attached to the optional barrel shroud rather than the sling mount you can buy for the rear.
