Description
Strike Industries built the Pit Stock for folks who want their AR as short and lean as possible without giving up a real shoulder point. It weighs a mere 4 oz, yet it's rated tougher than a standard mil-spec M4 stock, so you're not trading strength for a smaller footprint. The skeletonized, low-profile shape is right at home on lightweight builds and short-barreled setups where every ounce and every inch counts.
What Makes the Pit Stock Different
The magic here is the interface. The Pit Stock is built to run with Strike Industries' 7-Position Advanced Receiver Extension, and by keying into that extension it picks up extra contact points for a genuinely fitted, rattle-free lockup. That means no wobble, no play, just a solid connection between you and the rifle. It runs as a 2-in-1 setup too, so you can lock it fixed or leave it adjustable across three positions to dial in your length of pull between roughly 10 and 12 inches.
Real-World Handling With the Pit
The orbital shape first showed up on Strike's PDW stock, and it's the reason this thing shoulders so naturally. It gives you an ergonomic, secure weld even in the odd positions you end up in during vehicle work or extreme close quarters. Ambidextrous QD swivels are built right into the body, so you can hang a sling from either side without adding bulky hardware.
One thing worth knowing up front: this stock only mates to the Strike Industries 7-Position Advanced Receiver Extension, which is sold separately. It won't fit standard mil-spec or commercial buffer tubes, so plan your build around the matched extension. The red anodized finish over the 6061-T6 billet aluminum body gives it a sharp look that stands out on a custom build.

Frequently Asked Questions
What buffer tube does the Pit Stock require?
The Pit Stock only works with the Strike Industries 7-Position Advanced Receiver Extension, which is sold separately. It is not compatible with standard mil-spec or commercial buffer tubes. If you don't already have the matching extension, plan to add one to your build so the stock can key in properly.
How heavy is the Pit Stock?
It comes in at just 4 oz, making it lighter than a standard mil-spec M4 stock while being rated roughly twice as durable. The skeletonized aluminum body is what keeps the weight down without giving up strength. That makes it a favorite for lightweight and short-barrel builds.
Is the Pit Stock adjustable?
Yes. It runs as a 2-in-1 design, so you can use it fixed or leave it adjustable across three positions. That lets you tune your length of pull from around 10 to 12 inches to match your gear and shooting style.
Does the Pit Stock have sling mounts?
It does. Ambidextrous QD swivel points are built right into the stock body, so you can attach a sling on either side. Because they're integrated, you don't need to bolt on any extra sling hardware.
