Magpull CTR Stock

[Granzyman]

I am looking to buy the Magpul CTR stock and had some questions. I have a Stag lower and Magpul has both a Milspec and a Commercial version. I am assuming because i do not have a military rifle i want the commercial version. Also, everywhere i look the buffer tube and assembly is not included. Is that true? Or am i just not looking right. I apologize if this has already been talked about, i tried searching.

Thanks

I would go with the mil-spec tube it is a little thicker and compatability may be better down the line if you switch stocks.
With the CTR it does not come with a tube (I do vaguely remember seeing a package though)just pick one up for about 50 with spring and buffer

There are sellers that kit together the tube and spring and buffer such as Spike's Tactical. They are out of stock on the CTR, though...

what is the difference from Milspec and Commercial?

what is the difference from Milspec and Commercial?

Milspec tube diameter is 1.148" and the Comercial tube is 1.168"

Thanks,

does that matter with what type of lower? What are the differences between the two in purposes, etc?

[Linus]

The commercial tubes are slightly larger in diameter where the stock slides, but slightly smaller in diameter when it screws into the receiver. Either can be installed on standard lowers, with the Mil-Spec one actually having the stronger interface (more surface area of the threads engage the receiver).
