was installing a vltor a5 iemod kit
the vltor buffer tube is only coming over the shoulder just enough to keep it from popping out.Im thinking this could be a problem but not sure.
I have 3 different buffer tubes and they all come over the shoulder and almost up to the post on the retainer. so thats why I'm concerned about it.
I did call and spoke to someone at vlotor about it. I took some measurements over the phone to what they say it should be.
the spot that i was measuring is suppose to be 1.000 /tolerance of 40 thousand the measurement was at 0.966 at the lowest point.
The guy at vlotor said it is still in spec but if i did not fill comfortable with it that he would send me a tag to send it back for them to look at.He also said that he would look at some of the rifles that they have made up using that buffer tube and call me back.
He called back and said that those tubes(a5) don't come over the shoulder as far as the normal tubes do.
Im going to send it back to have it checked but if there all like that?
What do you think problem or not
