VIKING TACTICS - BUTTSTOCK ADAPTER

Simple to place on your weapon, holds strongly and snugly.

I was recommended this item by a friend and gunsmith, who had it on his Mossberg shotgun. A fan on simplistic slings for my systems, I was very impressed. It fits a Mossberg 590A1's standard buttstock like a glove. For a front point I have the shotgun sling plate adapter also sold here. I'm used to running weapons that weigh a lot, and doing it with gear covered body armor, in and out of trucks, day and night, etc; and it has caused me to like simple, lightweight sling setups. This item, said sling plate, and an issued 2pt sling help me sling weapons the way I'm used to, with no real weight added. No CON's that I've found, whatsoever.

This adapter is a good one. Quality material, construction, and a simple design. I have two of these adapters set up and I've shown them to several people. Everyone's cheekweld was well ahead of the straps. No one experienced any strap contact with their cheekweld. Just keep the nylon straps out of the Ultraviolet Sunlight as best you can, and they should last a lifetime. Hey, for the price? Sheesh.

I bought this to attach my VTAC sling to the top of the A2 stock on my AR15. The design is good and its also of good quality but the velcro strap that passes through the plastic slide lock buckle is far too short, it just barely reaches the other velcro part. So far it hasn't come loose, likely thanks to the slide lock buckle, but attaching it is rather a pain since to get any sort of contact between the velcro bits you really have to pull that strap hard. There are probably better options out there.

This is a simple and easy way to attach a sling to the A2 buttock so the rifle hangs properly on the body, once you cut all the GD Velcro off. Adding more Velcro to some “tactical” item doesn’t make it better or more effective, just makes it more difficult to use. Once the Velcro is cut off, attach to the buttock, cinch it down tight, and you’re good to go.
