Adjustable stock and buffer for AR-15

MAG347 is my goto, I put that S#!t on eveything, slim and compact, easy to quickly adjust, locks solid, no rattle, 11-14" LOP(M4) nice cheekweld, butt plate holds well and perfect shape/angle, QD in the right spot, and available many places for under $45. For AR15/AR9s I like the Aero enhanced buffer tube, smooth and relatively quiet finish, has the extension covering the threads and surrounding the buffer retainer to protect the lower from carrier tilt, has a ramp on the back to make stock swaps really easy, holes for drainage, it has everything.

I do have a UBR2, it's great for stuff that could use an A5/AR10 length tube, nice and solid feel and cheekweld, looks awesome and unique, actual improved function with several QDs and an improved adjustment mechanism. It's expensive at $150-ish, but figure $40-$50 for a good M4 or A5 buffer tube+$40 for the awesome Fortis K1 end plate, and it's really only a $60 stock as the tube and end plate are built in.

Took a comparison pic of a few, MOE SL is top left, UBR2 middle left. The MOE bottom left is a simple direct upgrade to standard M4, $30, rattles a little, no QD, but comfortable. Top right is a B5 Bravo, probably 2nd best to the MOE SL, a bit wider/more cheek weld area, softer butt pad, QD and easy install/adjust, It has a smaller footprint on the shoulder and no beveled toe, so hangs up a little when shouldering and not quite as comfortable. The MFT minilmalist in the middle right is an odd stock, really comfortable, really solid, similar buttpad footprint/shape/angle to the MOE SL, but not much elsse to it other than a simple adjustment lever and QD socket, 6oz is about as light as a stock can get, and this is on a lightweight < 5# 16" competition build for that purpose. Bottom right is the BCM gunfighter mod 0, a really popular stock. The adjustment mechanism is trash, really stiff, takes a tool lining up through the hole to install or remove on a tube, small flat footprint like the B5, but lacks it's soft comfortable butt pad and nice wide cheekweld. The QD socket is recessed so it's awkward to attatch.
