Carlos, Bob’s analyses is spot on. BUT I find that the threads on the commercial tube generally fit loser and are flatter when you look close at them.

I have seen 2 AR's that the commercial tubes loosen up and let the buffer detent pop out and the buffer & spring launched out jamming them up pretty good, I use NOTHING but the mil spec receiver extension. When I got my last new AR from Yankee Hill in December first thing I did was remove the commercial tube. (What do you want from a $1440 AR, HAHA?)

I think the last mil spec stock/buffer receiver extension I got from Bravo was only $65
