Help! M4 c stock troubles.

[golikehell01]

Alright, I ordered and received a new C stock from HK. I'm attempting to put this on a M1014. And when I went to put it on, it locks in a 45 degree position fully extended and will not collapse at all. My question is, are there different recoil tubes? There are no lines on the tube as described in the PDF so I'm just wondering am I A) that retarded as to get my ass kicked by a stock (possible) or B) are there different tubes- and if so where do I get the right one.

You need a new recoil extension for the stock to collapse.

 

It should lock into the fully extended position. When the stock installs at a 45 degree angle, continue pushing the adjustment button, now rotate it 45 degrees. Continue pushing the button and extend the stock about an inch. Rotate the stock again while pushing the button.

 

I sourced a replacement recoil tube from Numrich Arms. I haven't received it yet. I will verify the type of tube it is when it comes.

Which recoil tube do you have? If it looks like the one on the top, it will collapse. If it looks like the one at the bottom, you will just have a skeleton stock.
