      they have mil spec tubes and commercial tubes, but the buffers themselves are all the same ..

        I meant buffer tube not buffer, I have a commercial buffer tube and need a milspec tube to fit my stock.

        I was wanting suggestions for a good cost effective milspec tube to replace it with.

        Sorry for the confusion.

            the mil-spec tube diameter is 1.15 and commercial is 1.17 ... just go with major manufacturer and you'll be ok .. depending on how much you wanna spend.. or you can get the compete magpul kit .. I get my stuff from DSGarms.com ,they are a big magpul dealer, but I get special pricing ... find one u like and google best price delivered... my 2c.

            I like the one that came on my PWS .. it's on ebay for $75 delivered .. has built in sling points too .. super nice finish , but pricey ..

              Is that UTM buffer tube any good? Will it be a good fit?

                I have no personal experience with it, but it seems to have good reviews. The price jumps pretty quickly past that tube and if I needed one I couldn't justify spending $50 on a tube. I just say Cheaper than Dirt has it for $15 as well.

                  Is the stock wrench a necessary tool to get the tube off? I've never taken one off before.

                    yes.......it makes life alot easier, get an armorer's guide to the AR15 while you're at it, pictures are always a good thing, because there is a spring and detent that will fly across the room if you're not careful, speaking from experience on that one.

                        if the stock was purchased new, i was ask the vendor if you could return it and get the entire kit instead. otherwise, hit ar15.com EE and find them there used.
