LS stock

The Lightningstorm's shoulder stock.

A detachable shoulder stock is an optional accessory that helps the user stabilize a compatible blaster when reloading or firing.

Since 2008, Nerf has a standardized detachable shoulder stock system found on many of their blasters. It is often nicknamed the N-Strike detachable shoulder stock by the Nerf community due to its introduction in the N-Strike series.

Details[]

Detachable shoulder stocks are designed to be removed from a blaster with ease. They are intended to help with firing accuracy when fired, or provide support for reloading and priming. They are most effective on a higher-power blaster, like a Dart Zone Pro blaster, which have stronger springs for high performance use. Nerf slam fire blasters and those who use similar pump-action priming mechanisms, also benefit from the use of shoulder stocks, as they help reduce strain that comes from constantly priming and pumping them.

Stocks may include additional features, such as the ability to store ammunition, ammunition holders (such as clips) or specific blasters. Others may feature the ability to be adjusted and set to different extension sizes. Some can even acts as back-up blasters, like the N-Strike Modulus Blaster Stock and StockShot.

Certain shoulder stocks use a specific attachment point and system that allows them to be cross-compatible with certain blasters. The Nerf version, introduced with the N-Strike Recon CS-6, is one of the most popular options; some other companies also use this attachment point on their blasters, so they can accept Nerf shoulder stocks as well.

More recently, high performance blasters have been using a mil-spec buffer-tube style of stock attachment point. These stocks are more sturdy and are usually adjustable for length. The stock tube can also house the spring, and many blasters feature a quick-change system to change out the spring from the tube. The buffer tube can accept many real-steel and airsoft mil-spec stocks, although modification may be required.

History[]

The first detachable shoulder stock was introduced in 2008 with the N-Strike Recon CS-6.
