Re: ar standard stock

Does it work?
If it does than it is fine and length doesn't matter. The standard carbine is around 7" I believe.

Sorry I said the wrong term with the gas tube. I mention the stock tube. No I am not new to guns just dumb with ar parts cuz i am new to the ar world.
 
Re: ar standard stock

You mean the buffer tube, right? The tube inside the stock that the buffer rides in? And do you mean the A-2 fixed stock or M-4 style collapsable? If it is the A-2, DPMS makes a spacer to increase LOP. I don't know of any way to increase the LOP on a carbine but someone else might.

The receiver extension? That sounds like the word you're searching for.
