The Hogue 15340 OverMolded Collapsible Buttstock transforms standard AR-15 platforms with enhanced grip control and shock absorption through its signature Flat Dark Earth rubber overmolding. This mil-spec compatible buttstock addresses common issues of slippage and recoil discomfort while maintaining full length-of-pull adjustability.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard polymer buttstocks, the 15340 features Hogue's proprietary OverMolded rubber coating that provides superior grip in wet conditions and reduces felt recoil. The synthetic core maintains structural integrity under stress while the rubber exterior eliminates the harsh plastic feel of basic military stocks. Testing shows 40% better grip retention compared to standard mil-spec buttstocks in adverse weather conditions.
Key Features
- OverMolded Flat Dark Earth rubber coating for enhanced grip and recoil reduction
- Mil-spec diameter compatibility fits standard AR-15, M16, and M4 buffer tubes
- Six-position collapsible design with secure locking mechanism
- Reinforced synthetic polymer core rated for 10,000+ cycling operations
- Textured rubber surface maintains grip with gloves or bare hands
- Quick-detach sling swivel compatible mounting points

Field performance demonstrates consistent lockup across all six positions without wobble or play. The rubber overmolding maintains flexibility in temperatures from -40°F to 140°F, making it suitable for duty use, competitive shooting, and hunting applications. The textured surface pattern channels moisture away from contact points, ensuring reliable shouldering even in rain or high-humidity conditions.
