One stock that stands out from the rest is the SSR-25 stock from The Mako Group.This simple, rugged sniper stock is designed to excel in it’s intended role – providinga soldier-proof , fast-operating stock for Israeli snipers fielding SR-25 rifles.

The first thing you will notice about the SSR-25 stock is that it was definitelynot designed to impress civilian gear geeks with space-age looks or overcomplicatedcontrols. It’s clean, spartan design saves weight and bulk. The stock blends withthe shape of the rear of the rifle’s receiver and brings that shape back to whereit drops down in a comfortable hook for the off-hand to hold. The butt section terminatesin a rubber buttpad and a push-button release allows the butt section and a cheekpieceto be raised to the desired height. A second pushbutton releases a spring-loadedmonopod hidden in the stock. The monopod drops straight down to the desired heightand has course and fine elevation adjustments. If you have never fired a rifle froma bipod and monopod combination, you will be amazed by the potential increase inaccuracy.

This stock is build from rugged reinforced polymer composite. This material is idealfor building weapon accessories because it is lightweight and very strong. It isalso more comfortable in extreme temperatures than metals.

ssr-25-oir-valdada-on-dpms-lr-308The SSR-25 Sniper Stock is a drop-in replacementfor an A2 style stock. (If the rifle has a collapsible buttstock, then the carbinebuffer tube needs to be removed and replaced with a rifle buffer tube. Be sure toreplace the carbine buffer and spring with a rifle buffer and spring to preventdamage to the rifle.) To install, simply remove the existing stock from the rifle.Set the old stock and the spacer aside. Loosen a keeper screw (accessed throughbuttpad of the SSR-25) several turns and slide the buttpad/cheekrest assembly upand off of the back of the SSR-25 stock. Slide the SSR-25 onto the rifle’s buffertube and slide forward most of the way. Insert monopod spring into well and holdin place while sliding the stock all the way forward on the buffer tube. Insertand tighten buttstock screw and slide the buttpad/cheekpiece assembly back intoplace. tighten keeper screw and installation is finished. This stock can easilybe installed in about three minutes.

Length of pull is about 14.5″ and seems ideal for a scoped AR rifle. Many peopleare fixed on the idea of a collapsable stock, and I am often asked whether thereare collapsible sniper stocks available. While collapsible stocks are great forCQB applications while wearing body armor, most snipers do not use body armor whenshooting. Also, adjustable cheekpieces and AR charging handles do not mix well oncollapsible stocks. Another consideration is that with sniper optics on an AR, itis often difficult to get enough eye relief. I have found that even with body armor,I have had hard time getting far enough away from the optics with standard collapsiblestocks.

Height of the cheekpiece is adjustable from zero to 2 5/16″ – tall enough to usewith carry handle mounted scopes. This stock is a great option for anyone who wantsto scope an A1 or A2 style rifle. The push button adjustment is much faster thanwheel-type adjustments.

gunblast_dpms-lr-260The monopod adjusts from zero to 6.25 inches. It’s unique designallows the shooter to take a position, touch a button, and deploy the monopod instantlyto the desired height. The elevation can be fine-tuned by turning either the fineor course adjustments. At any time large adjustments can be made instantly withthe touch of the button. This design is much faster than others which must be loosened,swung down, tightened, and then spun to the desired height. The long range of adjustmentmakes this design especially suited to both snipers and varmint hunters, since bothoften shoot from less than ideal positions.

Price for the SSR-25 is very reasonable, lower than all other sniper stocks I amaware of now, and considerably lower than many. The SSR-25 is available for purchasehere.

Although the SSR-25 stock was designed for the SR-25, M16, AR-15, AR-10 or DPMSLR-308 family of rifles, it can be installed on any rifle that is designed for orcan be adapted to take an AR-15 buttstock. The Mako Group offers conversion kitsto adapt this stock to AK-47/74 style rifles or VZ-58 rifles. Many .50 BMG riflesare designed to use AR style buttstocks, and with its rubber buttpad, the SSR-25is ideal for harder recoiling rifles such as .50 BMG rifles or .308 AR-1o type rifles.Kits are available from other manufacturers to adapt many other rifles to AR buttstocks.
