I just got the stock and installed it today and just wanted to see if I did it right.

Took off A2 stock. (Cautious of Takedown pin detent spring.)

Slid Vltor over reciever extension flush with lower receiver.

Put extesion through the rear of Vltor hole with tit up.

Put end cap in Vltor hole and used A2 screw.

The stock seems to fit fine but there is some widgie didgie that was included with the stock.  It is like a knob with with a lever on it or something and I can't figure out what it is for.  So I was wondering if I needed it for something.'  Or if I missed a step or anything.

Thanks

Also, if you look at the stock where is meets the receiver, there are two small traingular holes visible, protruding out a little bit ( I think that ishole for the buffer tube.)  Is this normal?

you are going to want to use the shorter A1 screw. The little thing you describe is to lock the stock on a mil spec carbine telestock receiver ext.

As noted, you need the shorter screw.  Can you lock the bolt to the rear?  Usually the A2 screw will prevent this with an A1 stock, or allow a very slight engagement of the bolt with the bolt catch.  You can just cut 5/8" off your existing screw, or buy another A1 length.

The bolt locks back fine from what I can tell.

Where can I get an A1 length screw?

Thanks

So did mine. Chewy, just call them, I bet they'll get you a A1 lenght screw.

I wonder if Vltor is still including them with the A1 stock kits?

Allright, I will call them, I assume they have a website with all the info right?  But can I damage anything using the A2 screw, as said before it seems to work fine?

Thanks

You may chew up the end of your buffer with the longer screw.
