Most places you can't even backorder them they've been out of stock so long.

Does he talk about what happened with the Marine Corps and the A5?

I waiting to get a chance to purchase one of those MA-5 Modular Buffer System kits that they showed at SHOT.

We get buffers and REs, but rarely have all of the components at the same time. Now we have lots of buffers but no REs, having sold them all without the buffers, then getting tons of buffers but no REs lol.

I don't think anyone has Vltor REs in-stock at this point in time, right now if an A5 RE it BCM intermediate or nothing

Are the A5 parts really that hard to source? You could use the BCM intermediate or Magpul RE, and I think an LMT .308 works, too. Heavybuffers has the buffers and Vltor REs in stock. In fact you could put together a complete system right now without any Vltor parts at all.

I might be missing something, but I own all three A5 receiver extensions (Vltor, BCM and Magpul). I would use whichever one was in stock. All of them are of equal quality.
