SYLVAN ARMS AR15/AR9 Right-Hand Folding Stock Adapter
- Firearm Group:
- AR Platform
The Sylvan Arms AR15/AR9 right-hand folding stock adapter transforms your rifle into a genuinely compact package without sacrificing strength or reliability. Built from 4140 steel and CNC-machined in the USA, this adapter lets you fold the stock down for storage, transport, or tactical situations where a shorter profile matters. At just 9.4 ounces, it adds minimal weight while delivering 250% more strength than the previous generation—a serious upgrade if you've run earlier folding adapters and hit their limits.
Installation is straightforward: everything you need comes in the box, including the tools, and most AR15 owners can have it mounted in under five minutes. The right-hand fold option works with standard AR15 bolt carrier groups out of the box. If you're running a 9mm AR or .308, compatibility is there—though 9mm carriers with standard 5/8" bore diameter will need the included bolt extension after a minor BCG adjustment. The improved locking mechanism and adjustable hinge tension give you control over how tight the fold feels, and the hardened buffer pin handles repeated cycles without wear.
Two QD attachment points give you flexibility for mounting accessories, and the standard 1-3/16" x 16 threading integrates seamlessly with any stock that uses that spec. This is the kind of upgrade that pays for itself through practicality: faster transitions in vehicles, easier storage in tight spaces, and a platform that actually works hard for hunters, shooters, and professionals who need their AR to do more than just sit at the range.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this work with my 9mm AR?
