Law Tactical has designed a folding stock for the M4/ M16 family of weapons, which includes both 5.56 and .308 calibers. Additionally, the folding mechanism works with fixed (A1/A2), as well as the more typical adjustable carbine stocks in both mil spec and commercial sizes.

This product is NOT designed to allow operation of the weapon with the stock folded. If you think about the main action spring (buffer spring) and buffer, there is no way to rob the basic principles of how the weapon works through a simple stock redesign. With that out of the way, what the Law Tactical folding stock adapter DOES give you a much smaller overall package to transport. The stock deploys outward quickly, and locks solidly into position with ease and is held in place with spring pressure. This ensures you won’t be fumbling with gloves on, or from unusual positions. To fold the stock, there is a small latch which is depressed, and it is minute enough where I see no way to press it accidentally. Vehicle, concealed and low visibility ops, as well as transport on airframes are a few of the immediate thoughts which come to mind, but I’m sure as we get into the field usage of the Law Tactical equipped carbine we will have a better understand of its uses and applications.

Consider this a first look as we have no rounds range with this yet, and have only had it for one day. Once we get a chance to beat on it and shoot it a bunch, we’ll post up with the new info through the eyes of a few different LEO/ MIL, and let you know what we think.

I knew someone would eventually come up with how this idea would work. Very nice. Thanks for posting this, John. Nice pics, Stick!

This makes for nice discreet transport. I love that my UMP and G36K can crawl into a small bag.
