Collapsable Stock Tube ?

[kmc0929]

So a friend from Beretta/Benelli said they could get me a collapsable stock. How can I tell if my m4 will accept one? Is there a part that goes over the recoil tube and has the notches or does my tube have notches on it? Let me know!

Ok, what I think I actually need to know is, how can I tell if I have the multiple position buffer tube, and what will happen if i put a coll stock on a non coll tube.

it will fit, it just wont collapse with out the notches. but it will look cool!! and the only real way to know, is to pull off your pg stock and check. goodluck.

anyone have a picture of a notched one and an unnotched one?

Hey KMC,

If your M4 is an 11707 your good to go with a multiple posion tube

 

Look at the end panel of the box it came in if you still have it. on the sticker with all the bar codes on it

 

Later,

Could you machine the notches into a regular tube?

[texas skeeter]

im sure a machine shop could, but you'd need the actual 3 position tube for measurements/reference. the tubes used to sell for approx 180$ a few months ago. the only one ive seen lately is on GUNBROKER selling for 289$ i believe.

i bought and received the recoil tube from numrich's only to find when delivered it is a 2-position tube. and i even called and they said it was a 3-position tube. oh well live and learn.

I'd call them and request a return. Maybe it was a packing/shipping error.

the gal there said it was the only tube they have/sell. they sell it stripped, which is what i bought. and they sell it w/ internal spring and clip installed as an assembly. i'll try and sell it here, but will call them back on monday to re-verify the info i have so far from them. thanks though DOOK!!
