Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit my commercial-spec buffer tube?
A: No, this is specifically designed for mil-spec diameter receiver extension tubes. It will be loose and wobble on a commercial-spec tube. Always check your tube’s specification before ordering.
Q: Are the QD sockets standard size?
A: Yes, they are standard 0.625″ quick-detach sockets compatible with the vast majority of QD sling swivels from brands like Magpul, Blue Force Gear, and others.
Q: Is the adjustment lever stiff?
A: The lever has a positive, secure engagement. It’s designed to be firm enough to prevent accidental movement during use but is easily operated with one hand when you need to adjust it. It typically breaks in nicely with a little use.
