ProMag Archangel AA1430 Sparta Stock for Ruger Mini-14/30

The Archangel Sparta (AA1430) takes the AAMINI precision shell and adds a four-position collapsible buttstock and a more aggressive pistol-grip section. Carbon-fiber and glass-reinforced polymer construction is the same, the aluminum Picatinny top rail is the same, and the seven-position adjustable cheek riser carries over. Owners get the AAMINI's scope-mounting and bedding advantages with the LOP adjustability the fixed AAMINI lacks.

The collapsible mechanism uses a captive lever and detent rather than the AR-style buffer-tube tube, so there is no buffer-tube hardware exposed and no drift. The pistol grip is more vertical than the AAMINI's thumbhole and brings the trigger reach closer to AR-pattern muscle memory, which matters for shooters who run multiple platforms.

The Sparta sits about $80 above the AAMINI for the LOP adjustment and the more vertical grip. Pick it over the AAMINI if the rifle gets shared between shooters or worn over body armor; pick the AAMINI if the rifle has a single owner and the LOP is set once.
