a lever assembly rotatably attached to the body, wherein the lever assembly comprises
a lever arm rotatably attached to the body,
a locking pin and locking spring disposed within the lever arm, wherein the locking spring biases the locking pin into the locking slot,
a trigger attached to the lever arm and rotatably engaged with the locking pin, wherein rotation of the trigger overcomes the locking spring to move the locking pin out of the locking slot, and
a position pin extending from the lever arm and positionable in one of the plurality of position slots.
2. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the lever assembly further comprises:
a travel pin extending from the lever arm into the travel slot, wherein a travel spring within the travel slot biases the travel pin to maintain the position pin in one of the plurality of position slots, wherein rotation of the lever arm overcomes the travel spring to move the position pin out of one of the plurality of position slots, and
a push plate and one or more pressure springs disposed within the lever arm, wherein the one or more pressure springs bias the push plate against the buffer tube.
3. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the lever assembly comprises a locked position, an intermediate position, and an unlocked position.
4. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the trigger rotates about a trigger pin attached to the lever arm.
5. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the trigger comprises a trigger slot and limit pin disposed within the trigger slot that limits rotation of the trigger.
6. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the trigger comprises a cam surface that engages a knob on the locking pin.
7. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the at least a portion of the trigger is dispose within a notch in the locking pin.
8. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the locking spring biases the trigger.
9. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the lever arm rotates about a lever pin.
10. The adjustable buttstock of claim 1 , wherein the lever arm comprises a handle.
11. The adjustable buttstock of claim 2 , wherein the position pin passes through a hole in the push plate.
12. The adjustable buttstock of claim 2 , wherein the one or more pressure springs comprise two pressure springs disposed on opposite sides of the position pin.
13. The adjustable buttstock of claim 2 , further comprising a set screw disposed within the travel slot, wherein the set screw adjusts the position and compression of the travel spring.
14. An adjustable buttstock attachable to a buffer tube with a plurality of position slots, the adjustable buttstock comprising:
a body slidably attached to the buffer tube; and
a lever assembly rotatably attached to the body, wherein the lever assembly comprises
a lever arm rotatably attached to the body,
a locking pin and locking spring disposed within the lever arm,
a trigger attached to the lever arm and rotatably engaged with the locking pin, wherein rotation of the trigger overcomes the locking spring to move the locking pin, and
a position pin extending from the lever arm and positionable in one of the plurality of position slots.
15. An adjustable buttstock attachable to a buffer tube with a plurality of position slots, the adjustable buttstock comprising:
a body slidably attached to the buffer tube;
a butt attached to the body, wherein the butt comprises a locking slot and a travel slot; and
a lever assembly rotatably attached to the body, wherein the lever assembly comprises a locked position, an intermediate position, and an unlocked position, wherein the lever assembly comprises
a lever arm rotatably attached to the body,
a locking pin and locking spring disposed within the lever arm, wherein the locking spring biases the locking pin into the locking slot,
a trigger attached to the lever arm and rotatably engaged with the locking pin, wherein rotation of the trigger overcomes the locking spring to move the locking pin out of the locking slot, wherein the trigger comprises a cam surface that engages a knob on the locking pin,
a position pin extending from the lever arm and positionable in one of the plurality of position slots,
a travel pin extending from the lever arm into the travel slot, wherein a travel spring within the travel slot biases the travel pin to maintain the position pin in one of the plurality of position slots, wherein rotation of the lever arm overcomes the travel spring to move the position pin out of one of the plurality of position slots, and
a push plate and one or more pressure springs disposed within the lever arm, wherein the one or more pressure springs bias the push plate against the buffer tube.
16. The adjustable buttstock of claim 15 , wherein the trigger rotates about a trigger pin attached to the lever arm.
17. The adjustable buttstock of claim 15 , wherein the trigger comprises a trigger slot and limit pin disposed within the trigger slot that limits rotation of the trigger.
18. The adjustable buttstock of claim 15 , wherein the at least a portion of the trigger is dispose within a notch in the locking pin.
19. The adjustable buttstock of claim 15 , wherein the position pin passes through a hole in the push plate.
20. The adjustable buttstock of claim 15 , further comprising a set screw disposed within the travel slot, wherein the set screw adjusts the position and compression of the travel spring.
