Who This Is For
The Magpul MOE SL Stock is an excellent upgrade for AR-15 owners who run body armor, plate carriers, or chest rigs and need a stock that won't fight their gear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Magpul MOE SL Stock fit my existing AR-15 buffer tube?
The MOE SL Mil-Spec model is designed specifically for mil-spec diameter receiver extension tubes, which have an outer diameter of approximately 1.148 inches. If your current buffer tube is mil-spec sized — the most common standard on factory AR-15s — this stock will drop on without any modifications or additional parts. If you have a commercial-spec buffer tube (slightly larger diameter), you will need to upgrade your tube or purchase the commercial-spec version of this stock.
What makes the MOE SL different from the standard Magpul MOE stock?
The "SL" stands for Slim Line. Compared to the original MOE carbine stock, the MOE SL features a noticeably narrower and lower-profile body, integrated dual-sided release levers (rather than a single bottom latch), a sloped comb for better cheek weld, and a rolled toe that is specifically contoured to work with body armor and plate carriers. For shooters who run gear over their stock or who want a cleaner, more modern silhouette, the SL is a meaningful functional upgrade.
Does the MOE SL Stock include QD sling swivel sockets?
Yes. The Magpul MOE SL Stock features dual-sided push-button QD (quick-detach) sling swivel sockets built into the stock body, allowing you to attach a single-point or two-point QD sling from either the left or right side. No additional adapters or hardware are required for standard QD swivel attachment.
