Typical Midwest Industries quality. The ability to reverse the folding direction and the integrated storage are nice additions to the design. The lock to keep it in position is very tight as is the retention to keep it folded.
Would recommend: Yes

Very sturdy when in use. When folded, the fact that it pokes out to the side a bit helps it stay tight to the receiver. It is difficult to fold, I like that though because I don’t want it to fold when I don’t want.
Pros:
- very sturdy
- Folds away tight
Best Used for:
- Lower receiver that does not require a buffer tube
Would recommend: Yes

Building a 9mm bolt action AR style carbine. Using this with a brace to keep it compact for storage, etc..the only downside it weight. But, it is heavy duty, so all good. Fits my needs.

Great product and shipped very quickly. It was nearly impossible to fold the first 2-3 times (I have used one before so that wasn't the problem). It loosened up a good bit after the first 50 folds or so and now works nicely. The tube is also great and I use it to hold my paperwork in.
The biggest negative to me is the mounting screws for the tube. They are very small and have no locktite and worked their way loose in a few hours. Wish they were a slightly larger and therefore harder to stip bit size so you could put some real torque on it and wish they came with locktite and correct torq from factory. Once you locktite them and carefully torq them down though they seem to be good to go for now.
Would recommend: Yes

It is hard to fold, but sound and lock up is good for Picatinny.

Excellent product......
It fits perfect for my buffer less AR lower.
Little to strong spring for folding (I am just too weak)
highly recommend it for buffer less short pistol folding stock..
well worth it.
thanks Midwest.

Omg, why is this so heavy? It’s folding is so stiff. I didn’t want any junk but I also wasn’t looking for a hammer at a secondary weapon. I honestly don’t think it would be this heavy. It’s crazy how heavy this thing is. I wanted something light weight this isn’t it. This is a sledgehammer!
Cons:
- Extremely over built and extremely heavy
Best Used for:
- As a hammer this was used to fall off the mountain in lone survivor
Would recommend: No

Easy install, solid lockup, can flip to left or right side folding. Adds needed weight to the back of my ZPAP85 for better balance, and has a bonus waterproof storage compartment in the tube for batteries, cleaning kit, etc. Excellent product.
Pros:
- well built
- EASY INSTALL
- Storage Compartment
- left or right side folding
Cons:
- a bit heavy but good for my use case
Best Used for:
- adding AR stocks or braces to non AR platforms
Would recommend: Yes
