I did not know the difference either. Was this a result of a carbine being used by a mounted shooter and the rifle by a foot soldier? The carbine would be easier to shoulder without the curved butt plate and the rifle would be more secure for the soldier shooting from all positions from standing to prone. Does anyone have some thoughts on this?

Mkes sense to me Sunset......But since I never knew that was what made the difference in the shape of the but stock......what do I know?  lol

From all the CAS events I've see on TV and in person it might actually be the other way around though? Having that curved butstock might work better for a mouted shooter to make it easier to shoot one handed and keep the gun more stable?Huh?   Undecided
