It is better than expected for the price. It is still wiggle a bit when folded up but my much more expensive folding stock does the same, so no complain. I modified my M92 AK pistol and still keep it within legal specs. You need a buffer stock castle nut wrench to do it right. I ended up cut 1/2" off my buffer bar to shorten the stock and cover up the extra exposed thread.

JUNK. I have been very pleased with every other UTG product I have purchased. Usually very well priced and very good quality. These, not so much. The aluminum is severely pitted, looks like they compressed some pop cans and spray painted the parts black. Grinder marks everywhere and still doesn’t function. Bought 2 for a couple non buffer system guns and one of the parts has to be pried open with a screwdriver to fold it. These never will make it on a firearm I own. I would be very surprised if it didn’t break off the first time shooting. Save yourself some money and go to Home Depot and get a door hinge. It would probably look better than these piles.

This adapter is made for the purpose of folding a buffer tube that doesn't have to function as a buffer tube - for example, dedicated rimfire. It is a chunky, semi-matte finished piece of steel. The adapter screws into anything threaded to accept a buffer tube and there is a thinner than standard castle nut to secure that end. In the middle is a substantial appearing hinge with a "lift up" flange to disengage it from the locked open position and which also serves to cam it into the folded position. At the aft end, there are female threads for a buffer tube, a setscrew at the bottom that locks into the end plate groove of carbine tubes or serves as an anti-rotation device for pistol tubes, and a more standard appearing castle nut. Installation is easy although I noted that the castle nuts would not accept my dedicated castle nut wrench. It took just a little bit of finagling to tighten both nuts. Locktite is very much recommended at both ends. Opening and closing are fairly positive, assisted (and sometimes impeded) by a spring that takes something approaching the strength of Hercules to compress in order to fold the hinge. That's fine by me, I'd rather have too strong than too weak here. When open, there's a little bit of wobble but for the price there's nothing to complain about. Overall, 1 star off for the odd sized castle nuts and the Herculean hinge spring - but on the basis of installation and brief use, I recommend this adapter for range toy use. I wouldn't stake my life on it though.Read full review

This adapter works very well for the little Ruger Charger (pistol version of a 10/22). Positively locks in either open or closed positions, fit and finish seem solid (note that this type of adapter, seemingly regardless of brand/price, will have maybe 1/4" up/down free play with a stock/brace hanging off it, so if you want something that doesn't move at all, avoid this type of hinge mechanism.) With this installed, my Ruger still fits in a backpack (even with the absurd 3-port muzzle brake I've got). May your tacti-cool dreams come true!

Expected thin material and bad fit got the opposite extreme. Had to drive the pin out and cut three turns from the spring and do a lot of sanding before I had workable function in the collapsed direction. As delivered you’d snap any polymer lower trying to collapse it and probably over time the same on a forged. Either had to whack it ultra hard to get it to lift past the lock or pry with a screw driver. But if willing to put a half hour into it and have basic mechanical common sense really can’t beat this unit.
