I just got a B5 Bravo stock, and a 6-point Spike's tube and wasn't expecting it to have as much play as it does.

Is there a different buffer tube that it will lock up tight with?

Odd. I'm running the same combination, and the lock up is tight.

Mine has a slight wiggle as well on a Spike's, but I just put it on an Anderson and it was tighter.  BCM makes a tube with slightly tighter tolerances, if you want to try that.  A little slop is OK to me, but YMMV.

I also have B5 SOPMOD stock on A5 Extension it to has wobble that I dod't like.

DOD only paid less than $15 for each B5....stock......... And that's what's it worth!

I believe I will go to LMT SOPMOD stock

BCM receiver extension. Mine have almost no play with any of my mil-spec diameter stocks.

I looked at it a bit closer and it's that the adjustment nub (sorry, I don't know the correct name for this part)on the stock has some play in it.

I don't know if this is typical.  I probably was just expecting too much and it's normal.  Changing the extension will have no effect.

I have a BCM mil-spec buffer tube and a B5 stock.  It wobbles a bit which was suprising since most reviews I read said they are tight.
