The Mako Group launched the GL-Core, FAB Defense's newest addition to its line of buttstocks, at SHOT Show 2017. The GL-Core features an integrated cheek rest, ergonomic buttpad and an interchangeable tube adapter. The new stock also provides a clean, tight fit on mil-spec and commercial buffer tubes.

The GL-Core features a variety of advantages for shooters whose preference is simplicity. The ergonomically shaped rubberized buttpad is designed for quick shouldering and easy maneuvering of a firearm, and the design makes the GL-Core equally durable as it is sleek.

The GL-Core doesn't have any protruding parts, so it won't catch on gear, clothing or webbing. The buttstock also features two integrated, quick-detach rear sling swivel connections.


The GL-Core is available in matte black, olive drab green and flat dark earth. The suggested retail price on the new stock is $65.30.
