Description

The M249 Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW) Lightweight Collapsible Buttstock allows shoulder firing in the extended and collapsed positions. It maintains a vertical buttstock position for full interface with the operator’s shoulder at all times through multiple intermediate locking positions. This improves weapon control when Soldiers fire in confined spaces, such as Military Operations in Urban Terrain (MOUT). The buttstock allows ease of vehicle ingress/egress and reduces storage space requirements.
