been kinda holding off building my first ar to get a UBR stock. Was going to use an EOTech but got this leopold scope tonight so now debating on which stock.  I don't wanna have to wait much longer to get a stock so I can shoot this. Kinda thinking PRS or m93 also. What would you put on this rifle? I plan on a bipod and foregrip too along with some flip up BUISs

Kind of a jump from the EOTECH to the scope......

Both Mil and commercial tubes will screw into the Bushmaster lower, the mil tube is a little narrower and will not take commercial stocks.

I have a LMT SOPMOD stock and I love it.

so is one better to have than the other? Which does the UBR or PRS require?
yeah, can't complain though, the scope was given to me :)

+1 on the M93(B). The UBR seems perfect for my AR10, but a little big for my AR15s.

Just got mine in yesterday, so far I like everything about it except having to remove the butt stock to take the tubes out. Maybe it's insurance you won't loose the tubes from ever rattling lose...they seem quite tight to me.
Other than that: It's tight to the mil-spec receiver extension, better cheek weld, no movement in the lock-up pin, comfortable butt pad, and a good overall finish look.

Not sure if one is better than the other, I have a 6 position TAPCO that is commercial and my LMT is military.....The Tapco was a little loose, but held up pretty nice till I got something better.  And the SOPMOD IS much better.  Just ask when you order the stock what tube you need.  
I use my carbine for more close in stuff so the SOPMOD stock and EOTech work for me.  With the long glass, you may want something else.  Maybe a RECCE configuration??

Good luck, keep us posted.

If you really want to get a Magpul stock to color match, I'd get a CTR. It will give you more versatility from your set-up. It is also good for getting a comfortable eye relief from different positions, like fully extended for prone, and halfway in for off-hand....just a thought. The PRS isn't as easily adjustable, won't adjust as far, and if you want to do a multi-role weapon isn't as good.

I've been setting up a QD sighting system. My EOTech already has a GG&G Accucam, so why not put a QD from LaRue or GG&G under a medium power compact scope, and make the sighting package BUIS/EOTech/scope. These mounts are repeatable to 1/2 MOA, & allow me to switch in seconds, so that allows me to expand on the carbine's capabilities without having to carry a complete extra upper.

This is why I'm partial to the adjustable stocks.
