The solid neoprene rubber, fixed butt-stock was designed with durability in mind and dynamically deforms to cope with the recoil produced by heavy rifle grenades. The Stgw. 57 sports a large carrying handle at its balance point that can be used during quick position changes or on the march.
Neoprene's burn point is around 260 °C (500 °F). [21] In its native state, neoprene is a very pliable rubber-like material with insulating properties similar to rubber or other solid plastics. Neoprene foam is used in many applications and is produced in either closed-cell or open-cell form.
Sling mounts also come in different widths for different webbings. The webbing on American slings are typically 1, 1 1 ⁄ 4 or 1 1 ⁄ 2 inch (25.4, 31.75 or 38.1 mm) wide, while European slings typically are 20 or 30 mm (0.79 or 1.18 in) wide. [citation needed]
