I apologize if this has already been covered but a forum search yielded no results. I just bought a Prod and would like to put the fold-able AR stock on it. Can't find the fold-able adapter anywhere for under $200. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Affordable AR Fold-able adapter?

The UTG adapters are very economical but I went with the SB tactical ones for my Armada and Armada carbine. They were around a 100 bucks and I got them from optics planet.

Don't waste your money on the utg adapter unless you don't care about the wobble. I'd go with a quality adapter, but to each his own. I purchased the utg adapter and wasn't happy. You know the old cliche, you get what you pay for

EliMarcher,
I'm also in the market for an affordable stock hinge...! Still saving up to buy all the parts I need to turn a PP700 into a take-down subcarbine convertible pistol...!
What are you trying to fold up?
I find the UTG so inexpensive, that I can buy a couple and mess with them to get them to work better -- IF they really need it.
I found that the UTG works with both the commercial and the mil-spec buffer tubes. Nice.
$10.36 was the best deal I found, here: https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/ak-47-stock-adapter-utg-converts-retractable-stocks-into-side-folding-stocks/FC-4712274521889.html
Here is a different type, ACE brand, now bought up by Double Star, for $52, that might work, depending on if you are planning to make major adaption work to your action anyhow for the attachment like I will need.

My favorite stock is this one here, Knoxx Axiom Adjustable Buttstock:

I went with the UTG purely for money reasons. It's temporary for sure. About a month ago I took my 8 year old out to shoot his first BB gun. I had a pellet gun I basically forgot about, but wanted to shoot something with my son. It brought back some memories, then I screwed up and starting looking at new air guns. Purely out of curiosity I looked up a local fish and wildlife laws and found out that as of 2018 you can hunt almost anything in the state of Florida. In a matter of a few weeks I have a Dragon claw, Benjamin Marauder Pistol, scba tank and all the other scopes and necessary nonsense. Figure I'd better start slowing down the addiction before I remortgage the house for a Texan or Fx!

Are you happy with your adapter. I just bought my first Armada and want to start building it as soon as possible. I am also curious about your opinion on putting the same adapter on a Umarex Origin after installing the Buckrail tactical conversion kit

I don't believe they make them anymore. Which is a shame. It pops up on their website but then errors. Idk. They are solid and lock when folded. The last time I looked at the utgs they weren't up to my standards lol. There is one at optics planet but it's expensive. I just pulled mine off one gun to swap it to another.

ok thank you for your response. I might just send it in to Terminador and have a folding Gtac installed. But I really like the for grip from buck rail.it’s minimal and looks clean

I have a GTAC on my Gauntlet 2 in .25. It’s long but a very nice feel on the bench and groups really well after he tuned it up a bit for me. He is really friendly and eager to help.

I checked out those folding adapters yesterday and they look identical to the two sb tactical ones I have. $143 is pretty steep though.
