I need to buy a rifle length buffer tube assembly kit and was wondering if there is one that is known to be better quality than the rest?

I see that Brownells  sells this kit, which has the parts I need. Is it GTG?

You want to buy the Colt A2 kit because they use 7075 aluminum receiver extensions.

They are currently out of stock but I think you can probably buy all of the individual parts.

All of the other kits use 6061 aluminum receiver extensions.

Thanks, I went with the forged tube as recommended.
