Whether you need a more compact setup for travel, cleaning, or maneuverability, this folding adapter is the perfect solution.

Key Features of the XLR Push Button Folding Adapter:

• Quick Folding Mechanism: Press the button to fold your stock, instantly reducing the rifle’s length for easier storage and transport.

• Durable Construction: Weighing only 4.9 ounces, this adapter is lightweight yet robust, ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Compatibility Considerations: Works with multiple chassis systems but may require modifications for Howa-specific setups.
• Optimized for Different Buttstocks: Compatible with TR-2 and Carbon Buttstocks, offering flexibility in configuration.

Choosing the Right Setup for Your Rifle

The XLR Push Button Folding Adapter offers various customization options to ensure optimal fit and function.

• If using the TR-2 buttstock, a shorter buffer tube is available to compensate for the extended LOP, keeping the length between 12″ to 15″.
• If using the Carbon buttstock, it is highly recommended to opt for the short carbon buttstock (12.5″), which results in a final LOP of 13.5″ to 13.75″, depending on the rifle’s action and trigger.

How to Install the XLR Push Button Folding Adapter

Upgrading your rifle with an XLR Folding Adapter is a straightforward process. Below is a step-by-step guide to ensure a proper installation.

Tools Required:

• XLR Push Button Folding Adapter
• Compatible rifle chassis or stock
• Allen wrenches
• Compatible AR-style buttstock

Step 1: Confirm Compatibility

Before starting, ensure that the adapter is compatible with your rifle chassis. Certain models, like those using an XLR Howa 1500 chassis, may require modifications before installation. If unsure, consult XLR Industries for compatibility checks or pre-modified versions.

Step 2: Remove the Existing Buttstock

1. Detach the AR grip and unscrew the small set screw on the chassis system.
2. Remove the buttstock from the chassis block.
3. If your stock has a castle nut, loosen it and unthread the buttstock or buffer tube.
4. For XLR contoured buffer tubes, use a 1/4″ Allen wrench in the designated cutout to loosen and remove it.

Step 3: Attach the Folding Adapter

1. Open the folding adapter by pressing the push-button latch.
2. Loosen the two socket head bolts to create a 1/4″ gap between the threaded plug and the adapter body.
3. Thread the adapter into the chassis block until the plug is recessed 1/4″ into the chassis.
4. Align the folding adapter so that it folds opposite the bolt handle.
5. Secure the adapter by tightening the socket head bolts to 35 INCH-pounds of torque.

Step 4: Attach the Buttstock

1. Locate the small set screw at the bottom of the folding adapter and remove it before attaching the buffer tube.
2. Thread the buffer tube/buttstock into the folding adapter until it is fully seated.
3. Adjust alignment by backing it out slightly until it sits properly with the rifle.
4. Torque the castle nut to 35 FOOT-pounds for a secure fit.
5. Insert the set screw back into the bottom of the folding adapter and tighten it by hand.

Note: There is no need to reinstall the set screw into the chassis block after installation.

Step 5: Test the Folding Adapter

1. Press the push-button mechanism to fold the buttstock.
2. Ensure smooth folding action and secure locking in place.
3. Verify that the stock does not obstruct rifle operation.

Step 6: Final Inspection & Adjustments

• Reinstall the AR grip onto the chassis block.
• Adjust the buttstock length of pull (LOP), cheek comb height, and any additional ergonomic settings.
• Double-check all screws and torque settings to ensure stability.
