The Stern Defense Rapid Attach Mini Buttstock Adapter (brand part number 008-SD RAB-AD-MINI-D1-M) is a compact version of Stern Defense’s quarter-turn quick-detach buttstock system, letting AR-platform shooters swap stocks without tools. Push the button and twist 30 degrees counter-clockwise to separate the stock from the receiver extension; align, push in, and twist 30 degrees clockwise to lock it back on, with a steel locking mechanism that automatically secures the connection. Built from 7075 aluminum with steel internals, it’s both lightweight and robust, and it works across gas piston, direct impingement, direct blowback, and radial delayed blowback AR-platform systems.
