This guide covers the selection and installation of AR-15 stocks, grips, and buffer systems. It details the evolution from fixed A1/A2 stocks to modern adjustable M4-style stocks, emphasizing the importance of matching buffer systems (carbine vs. rifle length) to the firearm's configuration.

This video provides a comprehensive, albeit opinionated, ranking of Magpul stocks for AR-15 and LR-308 platforms from a recognized expert. The speaker, Hop, meticulously categorizes each stock from S to D tier, emphasizing practical considerations like affordability, rattle elimination, sling mount utility, and ergonomic cheek weld over excessive features. The Magpul CTR is highlighted as the S-tier choice for its balance of features and price, while many storage-focused or overly adjustable stocks are relegated to lower tiers due to weight and perceived redundancy.
The PTR 9CT, an MP5 clone, can be modernized for optics and accessories, but faces challenges with its classic design. While offering a smoother shooting experience than many PCCs, upgrades like braces, optics mounts, and handguards require careful consideration due to the cocking tube and limited rail space. Night vision integration is particularly complex. Magazine reliability is good with KCI Gen 2, but overall, the platform is considered an expensive and dated design compared to modern PCCs.
