Samson A-TM Folding Stock for Ruger Mini-14/30

Samson has ended production of the A-TM Folding Stock and lists the SAS-14 Folding Chassis as its successor, a fully machined billet aluminum chassis designed, manufactured, and finished in Keene, New Hampshire. The A-TM was Samson's production version of the classic Mini-14 folding stock profile: American walnut stock body, stainless steel folding arm and hardware, and a fixed 13.5-inch length of pull. It is not a tactical aluminum chassis; it is the stock for shooters who want the AC-556 look and a compact side-folding transport profile while keeping the rifle's wood-stock character.

Samson lists the A-TM at 2.7 lb and fits it to Ruger Mini-14 rifles with serial numbers 181-xxxxx and higher, plus Mini Thirty rifles. The folding arm locks open for firing and folds along the side for storage. Because the stock keeps traditional Mini geometry, optic mounting still depends on the rifle's receiver/ring setup or a separate rail solution rather than an integrated top rail.

Owners who want a current Samson folder should look at the SAS-14 instead: it trades the walnut body for a 6061-T6 aluminum chassis with an M-LOK handguard and Samson's adjustable SAS-K folding stock. The A-TM remains the wood-and-steel side-folder for owners who already run one and want the AC-556 look.
