Magpul recently introduced the PRS Lite Stock, which is built with many of the same features and adjustability as the PRS Gen 3 Precision-Adjustable Stock at a lighter weight. Likewise, the PRS Lite Stock comes in at roughly half the price of the original Gen 3 variant. 

The PRS Lite stock is intended for use with carbine/SR25/A5 extension tubes and is built to military standards. As such, the new stock is compatible with .223 and .308 receiver-pattern rifles. The stock weighs 10 ounces less than the PRS Gen 3 and provides shooters with .8 inches of comb height with 1.4 inches of length of pull adjustment. 

The PRS Lite offers multiple attachment points for slings, including an ambidextrous 1.25-inch footman's loop, reversible QD sling swivel cup, and room for another QD sling swivel cup. A low-profile rubber butt-pad is adjustable for height and cant, giving shooters a stable interface with the shoulder. 

Features: 

  • Adjustable LOP (13.85-15.25 inches in .14-inch increments)
  • Adjustable comb height (adjusts from flush to +.8 inch in .1-inch increments)
  • Weight: 18.2 ounces
  • 1.25 inch ambidextrous footman's loop in the rear
  • Reversible rotation-limited QD sling swivel cup in front
  • QD sling swivel cup in the rear
  • Carbine/SR25/A5 receiver extension tube compatible 
  • Fits .223/.308 receiver patterns 
  • Not compatible with A1/A2 rifle tubes 
  • Not compatible with rifle-length receiver extensions 
  • Colors: Black, FDE, ODG 
  • MSRP: $119.95

My friend and I have a few different handguns we use on a regular basis. Some are for competition, some are for personal defense, some are for casual shooting and I even hunt big game with a handgun.
