MAGPUL ACS

Magpul is well known for their stocks, as well as other equipment that they make for the AR15/ M16 family of weapons. I've been using a prototype Magpul ACS stock since the later portion of 2008. What follows are my thoughts on the stock, and I'll try to answer some of the more common questions I've been asked.



Starting with an overview, the Magpul Adaptive Carbine Storage Stock (ACS) is a carbine stock, and is medium weight at .75lbs. For comparison, the Magpul CTR weighs in at .57lbs, and the Magpul UBR comes in at a more hefty 1.25lbs. The stock is polymer, and similar in material to other Magpul stocks, which should make for a stock which can hold up to more than its fair share of abuse. It also has multiple compartments for storage, more about that a little later. The Magpul ACS continues in the CTR tradition in that is uses a cam lever which locks the stock to the carbine receiver extension (buffer tube).
