Midwest Industries Alpha Fixed Beam Side Folding Stock with Adjustable Cheekrest, Black Synthetic, 1913 Picatinny Rail Compatible

The Midwest Industries Alpha Fixed Beam Side Folding Stock delivers a compact, adaptable platform for shooters who need flexibility without sacrificing rigidity. Built around a 1913 Picatinny rail interface, this side-folder combines adjustable ergonomics with real-world usability—whether you're running it on a modern tactical rifle, configuring it for left-handed operation, or exploring alternative mounting options like arm braces. The reversible design and robust steel/aluminum construction mean you're not making a compromise; you're gaining capability.

The adjustable polymer cheekrest and butt pad aren't afterthoughts here. They address a real problem: optic height varies wildly across rifle builds, and body armor or chest rigs change how you naturally shoulder a gun. The curved top surface gives you a repeatable, comfortable cheek weld regardless of your setup. The side-folding mechanism—built from 4140 heat-treated steel—locks solid in both extended and folded positions, thanks to the full-length locking lug and heavy-duty steel clamp with large surface engagement. No rattle, no guesswork.

From a practical standpoint, the folded profile adds just 0.75" to your firearm's length, while the fully extended position adds 8.5". Three QD sling attachment points give you mounting flexibility for your setup. At 1 lb 4 oz, the weight penalty is minimal for what you gain in utility. Made in the USA with a lifetime warranty backing your investment.

This stock is purpose-built for shooters who want a do-it-all platform: hunters managing thick cover, tactical shooters optimizing for different shooting positions, or anyone who values compact storage without permanent modifications. Just remember—if you're using this with alternative configurations like arm braces, you're responsible for staying compliant with current ATF guidance and all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
