    As the Katipo fits milspec tube. Yours might be commercial tube?

    It looks like it would fit length wise but the buffer hits the inside of where the butt has been glued in. It must be rifle length because it doesnt have the lock nut it just screws straight into the back of the lower. My bad

    You can buy a bufferdirect from katipo for $60. Your would have been a carbine tube in original email cat config but would have been changed to rifle length to fit the spearmags stock

    Any one know if the longer models will fit a rifle length buffer tube or if all the models will be mil-spec carbine tube only?
    $60 for the carbine buffer is good pricing, will get one if I have too, but if it ain't broke...
