I bought a NIB Magpul stock several months ago that was advertised as a M93A and have not yet removed it from the bag. I looked at it the other day and saw it is marked as a "M93 Carbine Stock". How do I know this is a M93A? Also, what kind of buffer and spring does the Magpul require?

TIA.

If there are 9 notches on either side of your buffer tube, you have the M93A, if you have less than 9 on each side it is an older M93. Magpul stocks use standard carbine buffer springs and buffers.

OK, I found the buffer and buffer spring on the RRA website. They call the buffer spring the "action spring". I assume this is the same thing ,correct? Finally, they have two choices for the buffer - "CAR" or "CAR Heavy" - which do I select?

Go with the CAR Heavy- Heavy buffer, which is better than a standard buffer.

Heave buffer - do others concur?

Seems to be all the rage.

Hey, I'm not one to argue with fashion. Heavy buffer it is.

"It ain't heavy, it's my buffer.."

Sorry, couldn't resist.
