Abstract
An adjustable buttstock has a front part configured to be attached to a firearm, and a rear part forming a prismatic joint with the front part. The prismatic joint has an adjustment axis and allows the rear part to slide relative to the front part along the adjustment axis. The buttstock further has a lock assembly that includes a wedge. The buttstock has a locked state in which the wedge is releasably wedged between the front part and the rear part, preventing a radial play between the front part and the rear part, and an unlocked state in which the wedge is unengaged with respect to the prismatic joint, allowing radial play between the front part and the rear part.
