The Luth-AR MBA-1 rifle buttstock with .223/5.56 buffer assembly is a complete, ready-to-install system for AR-15 builders and shooters who want a fully adjustable platform without the premium price tag. This isn't a stripped buttstock—it comes packaged with everything needed to assemble a functional A2-style buffer system on your rifle-length lower: the MBA-1 buttstock itself, A2 buffer tube extension, standard buffer, and caliber-matched spring. If you're piecing together an AR or upgrading an existing rifle, this kit eliminates the need to source components separately.
What sets the MBA-1 apart is its modular design and user-configurable fit. The buttstock features both adjustable length-of-pull (ranging from 10.5 inches collapsed to 11.5 inches extended, with an additional 1 1/16 inch of adjustment) and adjustable cheek rise, so you can dial in comfort and repeatability whether you're prone on the bench, shooting off bags, or running it tactically. The cheek piece arrives installed for right-handed shooters but can be moved to either side, making this genuinely ambidextrous for both lefties and righties who switch shoulders. At 18.4 ounces for the buttstock and 5.1 ounces for the buffer, weight is kept reasonable—important if you're building a dedicated hunting rifle or competition gun where every ounce matters.
The MBA-1 also includes multiple sling attachment options: molded pockets that accept Grovtec QD cups (sold separately) and compatibility with a rail attachment (available separately), so you can configure your carry system to suit your mission. The modular design means you're not locked into a specific look or setup—swap the buttstock later if your needs change, and the buffer assembly works with standard A1 or A2-length tubes on any AR-15 rifle configuration.
