The NcStar VG130 compact mil-spec stock is a lightweight, no-nonsense synthetic replacement for AR-pattern rifles where space is at a premium. Built to mil-spec dimensions, it drops onto compatible AR-15 receivers without modification, making it an accessible upgrade for shooters who want a more compact profile without cutting barrel length or sacrificing reliability. Whether you're outfitting a short-barreled rifle for home defense, navigating tight hunting blinds, or just prefer a snappier handling rifle at the range, this black synthetic stock keeps things simple and functional.
Synthetic construction keeps weight down and maintenance minimal—no finish to wear through, no wood to crack or warp in the field. The compact length of pull suits shooters with a lighter build or those running heavy gear layers, and it's durable enough for hard use in any environment. NcStar's mil-spec design ensures compatibility with standard AR receivers and buffer tube assemblies, so installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic rifle assembly.
This is a workhorse stock, not a luxury piece. It delivers the core function—stable cheek weld, solid lockup, and dependable handling—without the frills or the price tag of premium alternatives. If you're building or rebuilding an AR and need a compact, reliable stock that won't break the bank, the VG130 does the job.

What's included?
You receive the stock itself. Installation hardware and buffer tube compatibility depend on your specific rifle build; consult your rifle's manual or a gunsmith if you're unsure about compatibility.
