Additional Information
In 2010 the original Modstock was upgraded to a new and improved version. This stock is appropriately named the “IMod”, short for Improved Modstock. As with the rest of the VLTOR Modstock product line, the IMod is available in the popular “Combo Kit” configuration. The IMod Combo Kit contains all necessary items to complete the rear half of an AR15/M4 build.
All IMod Combo Kits come standard in Mil-Spec dimension. In other words, all IMods will fit only Mil-Spec diameter (1.150”) Receiver Extensions. IMods are available in the three most popular colors; Black, Flat Dark Earth (tan) and Foliage Green. As with the original Modstocks, the IMod is offered in the “Standard” configuration and “Clubfoot” configuration.
The IMod Combo Kit contains the following items:
- Qty 1, IMod stock kit, with storage compartments.
- Qty 1, Mil-Spec Receiver Extension, Part# RE-1
- Qty 1, Carbine Buffer (standard weight), Part# V2-1070-C2
- Qty 1, Carbine/M4 Action Spring, Part# V2-1070-C1
- Qty 1, Receiver End Lock Plate, Part# V2-1069-M1
- Qty 1, Receiver End Lock Nut, Part# V2-1069-M2
The Improvements of the IMod are as follows:
- Integral, but removable non-slip buttpad (color matched to stock components)
- Rolled/angled buttpad toe with wide traction area. This will assist in running the stock high on shoulder, making the IMod system more user friendly when using web-gear and/or body armor.
- Improved lock paddle, making it easier to operate and making the contact surface non-slip when operating the lever.
- Removed most sharp edges that may cause “snag points” to web-gear or other vital equipment.
- Improved strength throughout construction of the stock chassis. This will provide maximum strength during “Mortaring exercise” or unexpected impact.
Installation Note: The installation of the IMod Combo Kit should only be performed by a qualified gunsmith and/or certified armorer.
