is there a spacer on the inside of the KAK tube, since it's longer than a standard carbine tube?

I can't believe the timing....I just ordered a KAK Supertube this morning to do the very same thing! Only difference is I'm not going to use a spacer, just go for the extra ~ 1" the Supertube gives me over the current Thordsen buffer tube (I bought the whole kit a while back).

Thanks!

Question: Which of the screws will I have to remove to get the CAA saddle/Thordsen tube off? The four at the front, the two at the rear, or both?

Yes, I believe there is.

Why are you talking LOP with a pistol? Just use the damn thing as intended - as a better cheekrest.

actually now that i think about it, you can probably just remove one rear screw to take the CAA off. its pretty flexable. The thordson cover has adapter pieces with double stick tape that go between the buffer cover and saddle.

I want to take the whole kit and kaboodle off and put it on the KAK for an improved LOCW (length of cheek weld). I know the front 4 (2 on each side) have to come off to get past the non-functional protrusion that usually has holes in it. I was just wondering if the rear ones had to be removed or loosened also. It's just that it was such a PIA to assemble (the "instructions" sucked) that I didn't want to take it completely apart if I didn't have to.
