*Contents may vary by production run or retailer. Always verify the exact bill of materials on your package or product listing.
Smooth Cycling: A properly spec’d receiver extension, buffer, and spring support reliable feeding and ejection with standard BCGs.
Secure Lockup: The castle nut & end plate interface keeps the extension torqued and staked correctly to withstand heavy use.
Sling-Ready Options: If your end plate includes a QD socket, you’ll gain fast, ambidextrous sling mounting without extra hardware.
Mil-Spec Only: Designed around mil-spec carbine patterns. Commercial-spec stocks or tubes are not compatible.
Stock Pairing: Works with most mil-spec diameter adjustable stocks from leading brands.
Caliber Range: Suitable for typical AR-15 calibers (5.56/.223, .300 BLK, etc.); buffer weight tuning may be required for specialized setups.
Safety First: Ensure the firearm is unloaded; remove bolt carrier group and magazine.
Prep the Lower: Install the buffer retainer and spring; hold in place while threading the receiver extension.
End Plate & Castle Nut: Slide onto the tube, align takedown detent spring, then torque the castle nut to spec.
Stake the Castle Nut: Stake at least once into the castle nut notch to prevent backing out under recoil.
Function Check: Verify takedown pin spring tension, buffer retention, and stock fit before live fire.
New to AR builds? A qualified armorer can install and stake the assembly quickly while protecting your anodized finish.
Buffer Weight: Start with a standard carbine buffer; consider H/H2 weights if you experience over-gassing or want a slower impulse.
Gas System: Ensure your gas block is aligned and the gas port is appropriate for your barrel length and ammo.
Lubrication: Lightly lube the action spring and inside of the tube for quiet, smooth cycling.
Finish Care: Wipe anodized parts with a soft cloth; avoid harsh abrasives or steel tools that could mar the color.
Fastener Checks: Recheck castle nut torque and staking after your first range session.
Spring Health: Replace action springs periodically to maintain consistent cycling.
