WTF?
+1 Great Info!Also a comm stock will fit a milspec tube but not the other way around. The comm tube is 'thicker walled' but that doesn't mean stronger. The threads on the milspec tube are better Becsuse they fully engage the receiver better, ie less likely to strip out. It has to do with the way they are manufactured. Forged vs extruded or machined vs extruded. I forget which. Comm is fine for most if not all people. You have slightly more stock options with milspec as well as the option of adding the enhanced butt pad on the CTR/moe line of stocks. Either one are really ok in the big picture.
what did i get on my ar - it was an A2 style fixed stock??
True.I've always heard that the mil-specs were stronger than commercial so I've always gotten the mil-spec myself.
