| i just got my kit in the mail today but it wont fit properly onto the pin it seems to have been cut with one side of the tube further out than the other does anyone know if i am supposed to file that part down so it fits or should i send it back for a new one?? |

Do not file that portion of the buffer tube down. When the buffer tube is screwed into the lower receiver that tab that sticks out keeps the buffer retainer pin secure. While holding the buffer retainer pin down, run the buffer tube in until the tab contacts the buffer retainer. |

Try downloading either the military -23 manual or the Colt Mtx manual and reading through the instl instructions for the carbine stock. www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=7&t=349784 |

see this is wat it ends up looking like when i screw the tube in to where it holds the retainer pin in =/ http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/9693/pc240212dm1.th.jpg |

read this: www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=4&t=226782 i'd highly suggest you buy your upper complely assembled for now  the lower is the easiest and least complicated to assemble, and uppers have a few more things that need to be installed properly to ensure functioning |
