Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for standard, mil-spec AR-15/M16/M4 lower receivers and clones, so compatibility is not universal across all platforms.
- This is a completion kit, not a complete buttstock; the stock itself is not included.
- The A2 version adds the correct buttstock spacer, which is useful for A2 stock setups but may be unnecessary for other fixed-stock configurations.
- Installation instructions are included, but the kit is intended for stock conversion work, so proper installation still depends on the user’s setup and parts selection.
