VFC AK Folding Stock Adapter Set and AR Tube — 6 Position

This is the complete answer rather than half of it: a metal folding adapter for the rear of the receiver and the AR-pattern stock pipe that goes on the end of it, in one purchase. Six positions on the pipe, so length of pull adjusts the way it does on a carbine.

The result is an AK that takes any M4 carbine stock and still folds for transport, which is a combination the original pattern never offered.

It is cut for the VFC AK74 gas blowback rifle. The stock itself is not part of the set, so pick that separately.

Specifications

Good to know before you buy

Buying the adapter and the pipe as a set saves working out whether the two halves talk to each other, which is the usual trap when you assemble this from parts.

Any M4 carbine stock will slide onto a six-position AR pipe. That opens up a far bigger choice of stocks than the AK pattern has on its own.

Frequently asked questions

Does an M4 stock come with it?
No. The set is the folding adapter and the pipe.

How is this different from the 1913 adapter?
The 1913 adapter gives you a Picatinny rail and nothing else. This set gives you the hinge and the AR stock pipe ready to take a carbine stock.

Will it fit an AK from another manufacturer?
VFC name their own AK74. Treat anything else as needing a test fit.

Is the pipe mil-spec or commercial diameter?
VFC describe it as an AR-pattern six-position pipe without naming a diameter standard.
