AR-15 STR STOCK COLLAPSIBLE MIL-SPEC

AR-15 STR STOCK COLLAPSIBLE MIL-SPEC Reviews & Ratings

An enhanced version of the Magpul CTR® stock, the STR (“Storage/Type Restricted”) buttstock features two 4¼" left- and right-side positioned battery storage tubes and a wider cheekweld for extra comfort. Rubber caps at the rear keep the storage compartments resistant to water incursion, yet pop off easily for access to two AA or two CR-123 batteries inside. Features two integral 1¼" sling loops. Includes reversible QD swivel socket. Friction locking mechanism minimizes wobble between the buffer tube and the buttstock for a solid, secure "feel", which is enhanced by the detachable .30" thick rubber rubber that adds plenty of "grab" to prevent shoulder slippage.


SPECS: Reinforced nylon polymer, Black, Dark Earth, or O.D. Green. 7ј" (18.4cm) OAL, 5ј" (13.3cm) high. LOP adjustment range: 3ј" (8.3cm). 12.5 oz (354g) wt. Mil-Spec – Fits mil-spec 1.14" O.D. carbine buffer tubes.

Excellent!!!
Got this on sale for my first AR-10. Though the tip of the included dummy round broke off (it’s included for installation:) while I was trying to install it, I’m pretty sure it was my fault, so I have no complaints!!! Magpul and Brownell’s are great!!!

Great stock
What’s to say? Great stock at a great price that works the way I need it to. Easy install for the most part. Getting the pins pulled down far enough to get it onto the buffer tube was a the only tricky part. I figured it out without issue. If that is too much for you , then maybe you shouldn’t own an AR lol. :-)

Very nice
Solid lock up. Good ergonomics, fairly light. Only complaint is that I wish Magpul would start integrating QD sling mounts like other companies do

My favorite butt stock
I like the str model because it gives me a wider cheek weld without the rest of the bulk.

STR stock
Comfortable cheek weld and a real tight fit to the receiver extension. Used on a 20" 350 Legend and feels perfect.

Good basic carbine stock
Magpul is my preferred furniture. Brownells had these on sale as a combo with a Warhammer CH. Great value plus Brownells shipping and service is hard to beat.

Magpul STR
I was debating between the STR and the CTR. I was thinking the STR might push my face a little bit off my line of sight with my scope. My brother has the STR so I was able to test it out before making my decision. After testing with the STR I found that my concerns were invalid. So I went with the STR and am very happy with my decision.
