 commercial spec vs mil spec magpul stockSo Juan A Be kindly gave me a magpul stock for my AR. The buffer tube is supposed to be commercial spec on my AR, and the magpul stock says commercial on it. I got it on there, but it's tighter than a prom date. when I put it in position 1, it's hard as hell to get it to go to position 4. Is that normal? should I just oil it or something? if it was mil spec it wouldn't fit at all right?

Re: commercial spec vs mil spec magpul stock If it was a mil-spec stock it might fit but be very tight. But since it says commercial on it I'm just guessing it needs to break in.

Re: commercial spec vs mil spec magpul stock f*** it man, run it! I have never had a magpul stock. you could take and put a little graphite lube on it or hit the inner well with some emery cloth also.

Re: commercial spec vs mil spec magpul stock ok a mil spec buffer tube is smaller then a commercial buffer tube so a commercial stock can fit on both but is lose on a mil spec where a mil spec stock will only fit on a mil spec buffer tube unless you forced it on but it would be really f***ing tight now I can tell you my ACS-L stock was tight at first on one of my ARs just put on some lube stick it in there then rock and roll with bro.

Re: commercial spec vs mil spec magpul stock I was just going with what I know. I assumed you knew the milspec was smaller in DIA

Re: commercial spec vs mil spec magpul stock While commercial tubes are thicker I've always heard that mil-spec buffer tubes have stronger threads and are made of a better aluminum.
