Why PT-1 deserves attention

The PT-1 is designed for installation on a wide range of AK platforms: AK-103, AK-104, AK-105, AK-74M, AK-74S, AKS-74U, AKM, Vityaz-SN, TG2, Saiga-MK v.30, AK-366-Lancaster, Vepr-K, Vepr-KM, VPO-209, and others. It installs in the regular location of the folding stock and does not require additional weapon modification during installation — an important benefit for owners who prefer not to change the firearm’s status or complicate its maintenance.

Key advantages

• No weapon modification required for installation — no cutting or welding needed.
• Adjustable cheek piece and adjustable butt pad — comfortable shooting with different optics and hold styles.
• Wide range of length-of-pull adjustment — easily adapts to shooter height and stance.
• Original locking mechanism allows folding the stock with fixation at any length, and also allows cheek height and butt-pad height adjustment.
• Compatible with B-13 dovetail rail: the stock can fold and lock even with a rail element installed on the dovetail.
• Allows operation with iron sights when the cheek is in the lower position.
• Two butt-pad options (wide and narrow) and two sling-mount options included — versatility for different tactical needs and carry styles.

Adapters by weapon model

Adapters are supplied to match the stock axis specifics of different models:

• Adapter for AKS, AKS-74U — stock axis diameter 4.5 mm;
• Adapter for AK combat models (with the ability to fire with the stock folded) — stock axis diameter 5.5 mm;
• Non-folding adapter for AKM and carbines based on it.

When purchasing, be sure to specify your weapon model so the correct adapter is included in the set.

Materials and durability

The stock is made from D16T aircraft-grade aluminum alloy — lightweight and corrosion-resistant, suitable for operation in harsh conditions. Operating temperature range is from ?50 °C to +50 °C, making the PT-1 suitable for extreme cold and hot climates. Kit weight is approximately 480 ± 10 g (including the wide rubber butt cover and two sling mounts).

Quick installation guide (for rifles with a folding stock)

1. Remove the factory stock:
   • Remove the rear grip so it doesnÂ’t interfere when driving out the hinge pin;
   • Open the dust cover;
   • Using a hammer and punch, drift out the factory hinge from the folding mechanism. Strike from bottom to top toward the dust cover following the standard field-stripping instructions for the rifle.
2. Choose the sling mount you plan to use. Unscrew the other sling mount.
3. Choose the butt-pad cover you plan to use. If needed, replace the butt pad cover by unscrewing one and installing the other.
4. Install the PT-1 and the adapter plate on the rifle and drive the hinge pin back into the regular position (strike from top to bottom).

More detailed illustrated instructions are provided in the operation manual.

Conclusion

The PT-1 combines strength, lightness, and flexible adjustment. It not only improves comfort — it lets the shooter focus on the mission rather than on an uncomfortable fit. If you’re after an upgrade that’s easy to fit, durable, and highly adaptable, PT-1 is worth considering.
