When it comes to furniture for the AR-15, Magpul is one of the first companies thought of for replacement stocks, handguards, pistol grips and accessories. The company's diverse line of products, excellent price point and reputation for durability make it a natural choice for anyone looking for a sturdy replacement or upgrade.

The Magpul ACS-L stock was designed as a lighter version of the ACS (Adaptable Carbine Stock). With the twin tubes intended for battery storage removed, the  lighter stock is more maneuverable and comes at a reduced price. A stout rubber pad is included to help further reduce recoil and make for a more pleasant overall shooting experience.

Should you find the weight insufficient, however, there's a storage compartment perfect for the aforementioned batteries, cleaning supplies, spare parts or snacks, if that's your thing. A friction lock ensures proper operation, and slots for web sling. QD sling mounts are an available option.

MSRP: $79.95. Available in black, Flat Dark Earth, OD Green, Stealth Gray and Foliage Green.
