At SHOT Show 2025, Vantac introduced the Direct Access to Defense (DAD) System, a buffer tube replacement designed for rifles equipped with mil-spec buffer tubes. The system aims to improve shooter efficiency by allowing quick stock adjustments without breaking cheek weld or hand positioning.
The DAD System integrates with various stocks and is particularly useful for those using magnified optics like ACOGs or LPVOs, eliminating issues like scope shadowing. It features ambidextrous actuators that allow users to deploy their stock at the push of a button, enhancing speed and ease of use.
Compatibility extends beyond AR-pattern rifles to any rifle using an AR buffer tube. While most popular stocks, such as Magpul and Bravo Company, work seamlessly. Some, like Daniel Defense and SIG Spear stocks, may require slight modifications due to spring tension.
The DAD System could benefit individuals who frequently transition from standing to prone or in and out of vehicles. While it allows for quick full-length extension, it lacks a stop for partial deployment—users must press the stock against their shoulder and depress the button to adjust to their preferred length.
The buffer tube sells for $190 but military and law enforcement discounts are available. The DAD System is made in the USA and ships directly from Montana. These units are currently in stock and ready to ship.
For those looking to enhance their rifle’s adjustability and deployment speed, the Vantac DAD System presents an innovative solution. Check out Vantac’s website for more information or to pick one up for yourself.
