The best weapon stock I can make is about +0.33 speed, -9 special cost +3 wound.
Is it worth reducing the weapon special cost by approx. 10% in return for a +0.33 speed?
I don't think so. Anyone else finding different?
Interestingly my pre-CU stocks converted to 40/40 dmg 0 speed -20 special cost! Haven't tried them in anything yet but I only have about 20 left .. enough to make myself some nice weapons ..

Have you tried putting a 40/40 stock in a weapon on Live? When Chilly hit TC I couldn't and had to craft a new one.

Yes, I was able to use a converted Adv. Wpn Stock to make a few weapons tonight. I noted that some weapons actually require an advanced stock, so we won't have any choice but to use them in some cases. On a postive note, Imperial FF stocks still reduce speed by -0.5, but I don't think they reduce SAC any. In fact, all the themepark components have the same stats, which in most cases makes them useless. 
Hope this is changed in a forthcoming patch.
