SIDE FOLDING FIXED EXTRUDED STOCK Reviews & Ratings

A fan-favorite stock just got an upgrade. The Side Folding Extruded Stock from Midwest Industries takes design cues from traditional AK-47 stocks, adding on modern features and functions for enhanced usability. This all-in-one folding stock is a game-changer for any rifle with a Picatinny rail–not just the AK-47. The skeletonized body and ergonomically curved top surface create a comfortable operating experience, while the rigid triangular design with a tight lockup promises the stability of a fixed stock. And when it’s time to head home from the range, the compact folding action makes storage and transportation a breeze.

Heavy-duty side-folding mechanism constructed from 4140 heat treated steel
Full-length locking lug for maximum strength
Solid positive lock up in both positions
Steel clamp with large surface engagement
Can be configured to right- or left-folding
Curved top surface for a comfortable cheek weld
Features 5 QD sling attachments

I am very happy with the purchase. I was apprehensive about buying this. Folding stocks range in price so much I was struggling to understand quality vs cost. This stock is fantastic for build quality. It has that nice balance of sturdiness and just the right weight. Fit and finish is perfect and the overall pull is good for me (I am 6'2). It mounts very securely to the picatinny rail and I appreciate the included thread locker. The stock unfolds very smoothly and the lockup while folded is secure. I knock it a star because collapsing the stock is a challenge. I cannot tell if it is because the stock is new and the springs need some time to break in. It really is not that big of an issue, this is not on a duty gun, if it takes me an extra moment to collapse it is fine. Given how happy I am overall with the purchase I am good with the challenge. 100% worth buying, would not hesitate to buy this again.

can't fold

Can't fold it and the shoulder piece is wobbly. Fits good on PC9 and LC9.

Great stock for the BRN-180

I really like this stock, it looks great and has a positive lock up. The only cons are that's it's hard to fold and is a little uncomfortable, I plan wrapping it with Paracord though

Can't go wrong

fit and finish are excellent. This thing actually works as described. Great addition to an AK

solid

4 out of 5 stars because I'm still building my BRN-180(waiting on a 18.5in upper) and haven't used it yet. I have this stock on the BRN-180 lower with Geissele internals. *the only thing I would change and will buy is a retro AR-18/180 solid folding stock.
