Allen 18431 Snap-On Recoil Pad M4/AR-15 Black 2" Wide

The Allen 18431 Snap-On Recoil Pad is a simple, no-tools accessory designed to make a rifle with a folding stock more comfortable to shoot. Built specifically for use on M4 and AR-15 rifles equipped with folding stocks, it slips right over the buttstock and provides a soft, 2" wide shoulder surface that absorbs recoil and keeps the butt from digging in during extended strings of fire at the range or in the field.

The pad measures 5.5" tall by 2" wide by 1.25" thick and is built around a steel core wrapped in synthetic rubber for a cushioned feel against the shoulder. At roughly 0.35 lb, it adds meaningful recoil taming without noticeably changing the balance or handling of a collapsible-stock carbine, and the all-Black finish blends in with most factory and aftermarket AR-15 furniture.

Because it is a true snap-on design, the 18431 installs in seconds with no gunsmithing, no permanent modification, and no tools required, and it removes just as easily for transport or storage between sessions. It is an inexpensive, low-profile upgrade for any AR-pattern rifle shooter looking to dial in comfort, improve cheek weld on a folding-stock setup, or simply tame felt recoil on a lightweight carbine build.
