Additional Information:

• When using the MBA-3 with the smaller diameter Mil-Spec tube you can adjust the set screw located on the left hand side using the included 3/32” Allen wrench. Turn clockwise to slowly tighten the set screw until it contacts the buffer tube. The Anti-rattle set screw is NOT designed to lock the position of the stock. Over tightening may damage the butt stock.
• When sliding the buttstock onto a 6-position buffer tube, the lock pin has a notch in the head of the lock pin that must line up with a tab on the stock body. Once the slot and tab are lined up, the pin can be fully retracted allowing the buttstock to slide onto the tube. The MBA-3 should slide easily without resistance. If there is any resistance, the lock pin is not fully retracted. 

Buffer Tube Requirements

MBA-1 Freedom Flag Buttstock

The MBA-1 Freedom Flag Buttstock is a Rifle Buttstock and requires the use of an A2 style buffer tube. This is a “fixed” buttstock. The A2 Rifle buffer tube can be distinguished from carbine buffer tubes by their shape, the A2 Rifle buffer tube is completely round in shape while the carbine buffer tubes have a rectangular appendage to the tube that encloses six adjustment position holes. An A2 Rifle buffer tube has no length-of-pull adjustability and is substantially longer than a carbine buffer tube.

MBA-3 Freedom Flag Buttstock

The MBA-3 is a Carbine Buttstock and requires the use of a Carbine buffer tube. The MBA-3 will fit either a Mil-Spec or a Commercial buffer tube. (Note: Some commercial buffer tubes may be oversized from industry norms and may not fit. All commercial buffer tubes sold by Luth-AR will fit the MBA-3).

Carbine buffer tubes typically have 6 positions of adjustability, and can be distinguished from an A2 style Rifle buffer tube that offers no adjustment positions. Carbine buffer tubes also differ from the A2 by their shape, the A2 Rifle buffer tube is completely round in shape while the carbine buffer tubes have a rectangular appendage to the tube that encloses six position holes. An A2 Rifle buffer tube is substantially longer than a carbine buffer tube.

Carbine buffer tubes typically are offered in two types, Mil-Spec or Commercial. The Mil-Spec carbine buffer tube is visually identified by the 90 degree “cut” at the closed end of the tube. The Commercial carbine buffer tube is visually identified by the 6 degree slant “cut” at the closed end of the tube. A Mil-Spec tube should meet Military Specifications while Commercial tube dimensions are determined by the manufacturer and are typically made from an extrusion. As long as a Commercial buffer tube does not exceed 1.172″ in diameter the MBA-3 should fit the buffer tube. Using a Commercial buffer tube with an MBA-3 will typically provide a more “snug” fit due to the slightly larger diameter of Commercial buffer tubes.

If you need to purchase a Carbine Buffer tube we offer buffer tubes individually as well as complete kits. We also offer a Scalloped Commercial Buffer tube for that added custom touch for your AR build.
