It is just cosmetic worn in the finishing, the nob still holds the stock. But as the stock wobbling vertically, every time when I fold the stock I have to make sure that the nob is aligned to the hole on the stock, other wise it will not get in.

The stock wobbling is not that significant when the stock is extended and locked. But when it is half folded... As I said, the wobbling is big enough to effect the aligning to the nob. Maybe I can improve that a little bit if I try to shim the "hinge" of the stock, but I am just lazy.

I don't think it is heavy... It feels lighter than my full metal M4 (A good material M4. It probably should anyway, since it is much smaller than the M4...), very comfortable for me to handle, and I have poor upper-body strength.

A fully stock one will be slightly heavier, since I did some modifications to mine, include removing the "gas tubes", putting a lipo inside the handguard, and not using the external battery box. Don't think that made a big difference on weight. I just don't like the external battery box, especially on small guns.
