Does not fit most buffer tube thread lenghts

by MT, Verified Owner from KY, United States Written on July 14, 2025
Everything looks great but regular/normal buffer tube threads are not threaded enough to allow for the extra "girth" of this product. Can not screw buffer tube in enough to engage the buffer detent spring. N
Pros:
  • Looks great and has QD on three angles
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: No
