MAGPUL MOE® Carbine Stock – Commercial-Spec Model

I really like how the rifle is coming along, I love the FDE furniture.

Magpul Original Equipment (MOE) is a line of firearm accessories designed to provide a high-quality, economical alternative to standard weapon parts. The MOE line distinguishes itself with a simplified feature set, but maintains Magpul engineering and material quality.

The Magpul MOE Stock – Commercial-Spec Model is a drop-in replacement buttstock for AR15/M16 carbines using commercial-spec sized receiver extension tubes. Designed for light, fast action the streamlined A-frame profile avoids snagging and shields the release latch to prevent accidental activation. The Commercial-Spec Model includes an extended 0.55" rubber butt-pad to provide positive shoulder purchase and accommodates the longer, slanted back common to most commercial-spec tubes.

MAGPUL MOE® Hand Guard, Carbine-Length – AR15/M16

Again going with MAGPUL for my hand guards in FDE color.

The Magpul MOE Hand Guard for AR15/M16 firearms with carbine-length gas systems combines the light weight of a standard hand guard with modular flexibility. Designed with versatility in mind, slots at the two, six, and ten o'clock positions allow the attachment of optional Picatinny rail sections and other accessories for mounting tactical lights, slings, grips, etc. Reinforced, heat-resistant polymer construction provides operational durability without the weight and expense of an aluminum rail hand guard. Front extensions and lower lip provides additional operator protection from hot front sight assembly.

Made in U.S.A.


Features
  • Replaces standard M4 Carbine-type plastic hand guards
  • Now compatible with most piston-driven as well as 'direct impingement' gas systems
