How to remove a buffer retainer?

The Buffer Retainer will come out after this step. Rotate the stock/arm brace approximately 90 degrees with your left hand. Rotate the stock/arm brace just enough so you can remove the Takedown Pin Detent Spring (1) with your left hand.

Can you bend a receiver end plate?

If your Receiver End Plate doesn't have a sling mount you can skip this. If your Receiver End Plate has a sling mount, it might keep the Law Tactical from folding as far as you would like. You could bend it now or you can wait until after everything is put back together. I mention it now because bending it here will be easier here than after assembly is complete.

Where is the law tactical folding stock adapter made?

While the adapter does add about 1 3/4″ to the overall length of the AR, this is offset by not needing to extend your stock out as far to maintain a good extension and cheek weld.

Does the bolt carrier group damage the receiver?

In all though, considering how much force is moving through the bolt carrier group on it’s way to the rear after firing, it speaks well of the construction of the adapter that it was able to handle that and not damage the receiver or internal parts on the AR. While I certainly don’t claim to know the inner workings of the adapter, I question whether a stronger ball on the detent would have saved that part from breaking, or if that’s a necessary requirement.

Can you fire a round from a folded gun?

It didn’t do that though and I was actually able to fire a round, fold the stock back over, cycle the gun and fire another round. I also learned in this why it’s not recommended to fire from the folded position. No damage occurred to my gun within the test firing, but a small part did break on the adapter.

Can an AR fire in folded position?

While the directions that come with the adapter clearly state “DO NOT FIRE” in the folded position, we had to test that one out for ourselves, since the AR is capable of firing a single round while folded. I was certainly worried at what would happen and as you can see in the video above, I made sure to stand to the side in case the bolt carrier group decided to launch out the back.

Can you extend your arms to absorb recoil?

It’s much different trying to keep a foot of gun on target while trying to shoot it like a pistol. It’s not so much the recoil management, as it is the weight and length.

Can you shoot multiple rounds with an AK stock?

To me, this goes right along with the side-folder stock found on AKs and even underfolders. With AKs, you can shoot multiple rounds with the stock folded, but the AK is a different platform. I’ve had the opportunity to shoot AKs with the stocks folded and I’m even working on building a side-folding Krink in a new build series for ITS. What I’ve personally found is a whole lot of awkwardness when it comes to shooting a rifle with a folded stock.
