QUARTERMASTER
Justin Carroll

  Magpul PMAGs and ACS Stock  
             
   
  Justin’s ACS-equipped AR-15 feeds from a PMAG 30 MagLevel in Flat Dark Earth. PMAGs
are textured and have a flared base to provide a very solid grip during reloads.
 
             
 

If you’ve considered building or customizing an AR-15 within the last few years, chances are good you’ve noticed Magpul Industries. Magpul makes a number of innovative parts for the AR-15, many being a fresh approach to an old idea. Two products that exemplify this spirit of innovation are the Adaptable Carbine/Storage (ACS) stock and the PMAG (short for Polymer MAGagzine).

The Adaptable Carbine/Storage stock is the latest in Magpul’s growing line of telescoping carbine stocks. Several things about this stock make it stand out from the crowd. Overall, the stock is extremely streamlined; all the edges are rounded and there are no sharp corners to snag on clothing or equipment. The ACS’s release latch is shielded to prevent inadvertent stock collapse, yet is still easily activated, and features Magpul’s unique “friction lock.” The friction lock sits just forward of the release latch and eliminates the shakiness of the stock on the buffer tube. Another virtue of the ACS stock is the wide comb, which provides an excellent platform for a solid cheekweld. What really sets the ACS apart, though, is the on-board storage.
