Is Rock River equiped with a commercial or milspec buffer tube?

If you check their website it should say. Most of them come with Mil-Spec according to the site though.

I was looking at their site at the 458 socom operator and didn't see anything:(. I could be blind though:)

edit:

they offer both comm and milspec as an option but doest say what the standard offering is!

I think their standard offering is the commercial tube.
I bought a Tactical CAR A4 from them last year and it came with the comm.

I called RRA a few months ago to ask them the same question and the answer i got was " they are commercial tubes " .

They really should make the milspec standard on their guns so the buyer gets more stock options.

Commercial tube my man. I bought a complete lower in winter 2008. I'd give it a 10/10 if it weren't for the commercial tube. I still use that lower on my favorite gun but with an A2 stock.

Mostly commercial tubes.

It looks like if you own it already it is commercial, but they now have milspec versions of their new stock, so you could order one that way, then swap the stock with the one you like and sell the Operator.

Do you think it matters how old the gun is?  I got mine about 5 yrs ago.  A4 Standard,  commercial tube?  Thinkin about a adjustable stock so my daughter can shoot it easier.

Every rifle I've gotten from them has had a comm tube.

AFAIK RRA as always used commercial sized tubes.  But, look at this comparison to find out for sure what size tube you have: http://store.magpul.com/downloads/Receiver_Extension_Comparison.pdf
