Questions & Answers
Will this work with a Magpul PRS Lite Rifle Stock paired with a KynSHOT AR-15 .223/5.56mm Buffer for Fixed Stock?

The RE-A5 will work with the PRS Lite stock, however we recommend only using our A5 Buffers with this tube for the AR-15 platform.

Will a typical Magpul stock (CTR, MOE, etc) cover this when fully collapsed? Or is it too long to get that short of a LOP? Thank you,

The MOE-SL and STR will collapse fully on the RE-A5 tube. We don't have data on the other stocks.

A5 Buffer System is the best on the market. by Rogers Williams, Verified Owner, June 11, 2022
I replace all of my buffer systems on my carbines with this. It makes the recoil impulse so minimal I have nothing to compare it to. I’m so used to shooting them now that regular carbine buffer systems feel like a 308 to me.

Perfect extension by Jc, Verified Owner, January 31, 2021
In spec tube for one of the smoothest recoiling systems for the AR platform! I would recommend this system for anything12.5 and under as it pretty much eliminated any recoil for me on my properly gassed ARs.

VLTOR A5 Receiver Extension by Troy, May 28, 2019
VLTOR A5 Receiver Extension/System is a great product and should help with slowing down the BCG on my DD MK18. Optics Planet is a great company to do business with. My only issue was with FedEx and the 2 day shipping. I ordered the item on 5/6/19 ...

Must have for AR 15's by Nate, Verified Owner, October 23, 2025
This is a game changer in terms of making an AR shoot even smoother and softer, and although it is slightly longer than a standard carbine buffer mine didn't add any length to my stock because I was already using a slightly longer Magpul stock. Stro...
