Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between mil-spec and commercial buffer tubes?
Mil-spec buffer tubes have a slightly smaller outer diameter (approximately 1.14 inches) and a straight profile, while commercial tubes are slightly larger (approximately 1.17 inches) and have an angled rear. Mil-spec tubes are generally considered the industry standard and are required for mil-spec collapsible stocks. Always verify your stock's required tube diameter before purchasing to ensure proper fit.
Will this buffer tube work with my existing AR-15 lower receiver?
Yes — this LBE Unlimited buffer tube is pre-threaded to the standard AR-15 lower receiver thread specification (1-3/16 x 16 TPI), making it compatible with the vast majority of mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers. It pairs with any collapsible stock designed for a mil-spec diameter tube. Note that a carbine buffer and carbine recoil spring (sold separately) are required to complete the assembly.
Does this buffer tube come with a buffer and spring, or just the tube?
This listing includes the mil-spec buffer tube only. A compatible carbine buffer and carbine recoil spring are not included and must be purchased separately. If you're building from scratch, be sure to source a carbine-length buffer and spring rated for your specific AR-15 configuration — standard carbine, heavy, or H2/H3 — depending on your gas system and bolt carrier group setup.
