Magpul UBR install guide and pictorial review

[Stickman]

Weapon System: AR15/ M16

Manufacturer: Magpul

Item Installed: UBR/ Utility/Battle Rifle Stock

Purpose of Item: The Magpul Utility/Battle Rifle Stock is a replacement for carbine or rifle stocks, and gives an adjustable length of pull while maintaining a solid stock feel.

The Magpul Utility/Battle Rifle Stock is currently in preproduction status, so some information in this article may change as full production is gained.

The adjustability of a stock allows for a custom fit that will aid in sizing the weapon to the shooter. Stock lengths become important based off not only the body make up and physical attributes of the shooters, but with the equipment that they wear and use that they have for the weapon. Police Officers and Military troops who wear body armor understand that the extra bulk of their armor makes shooting a lot different, as do shooters who wear bulky clothing. What seems like a perfect fit in the comfort of your front room, isn't going to be the same thing as when you are going outside in -20 degree weather. In that same thought, the mission that your weapon serves may be something that changes on a regular basis. Riding and deploying from a vehicle with your weapon imparts a much different feeling than being out on a static range waiting to zero your weapon or shoot for fun.

The UBR- Utility/Battle Rifle Stock comes with a rubber buttpad, and Quick Disconnect (QD) mounting points in the front and rear of the stock.
